This is a detail of a print/painting for the June exhibition at West Buckland School. This is from the ‘Beauty and the Beast’ series.

Royal Wedding cash flow problem

Cash flow is always a pain for the small person like me (us) and thanks to the crazy way the UK has been forcibly put into ‘Bank Holiday Mode‘ the small guy has been put under even more pressure. Will I get a debt payment holiday – I guess not!

Death by Sushi

When I was very small (maybe 3 or 4 years old) my grandfather, who lost the sight of one eye from a bullet fired by a German sniper (fortunately not a very good one) during the Battle of the Somme in World War 1, wiped my face with the corner of his apron, an apron he had used to wipe his filleting knife on. He was a grocery shopkeeper who specialized in wet fish. I can remember the instantaneous pain and swelling in my eyes, the panic-driven breathlessness, the weeping blindness. The shouting, the accusations, my parent’s panic. My poor grandfather was only trying to clean the face of his grubby grandson. That was when I discovered I was allergic to fish. View all posts
