rug designs

For the last month I've mostly been working on rug designs. Drawing wildflowers has been a welcome change from my landscape based work.

I finished a buttercup and a wildgrasses design yesterday so both should be ready to start at the weekend.

Finished "roadside" rug.

"limpets and tangles", a recently completed commission.

 

yesnaby

One of my favourite places to walk and take photographs is Yesnaby, whether it's bright and summery or wild and bleak it's always a thrilling place to visit.

being a tourist

On Monday I drove over to the west mainland to enjoy the beautiful weather we've been having this week. I'm so rarely over in that direction that I decided to be a tourist and visit the Ring of Brodgar. It was surprisingly quiet there considering the weather and time of year, perfect for taking photographs.
