Hi all! I’ve always been inspired by the graceful arch of the Old Bridge - and the way it reflects so vividly in the Taff.

I wanted to capture the warmth of the setting sun and the bridge’s timeless charm by blending bold, vibrant colors with smooth, abstract shape.

To the DOJ/FBI who remain,

Your new bosses are going to order you to do unconstitutional things. Unlawful things. Things to achieve their fascist agenda.

Claiming "you were only following orders" did not cut it at the Nuremberg trials.

It will not work here either.

Proceed accordingly.

Castell Coch - the Red Castle - is an Edwardian folly on the outskirts of Cardiff, UK. Artist’s of all kinds have been attracted to its romantic gothic architecture for decades.

The big idea: what do we really mean by free speech?

Social media bosses are suddenly all for it, but can we take their enthusiasm at face value?

Things to Remember Tonight:

1. Keep pets inside and play classical music to hide the noise of bagpipes.

2. Keep your haggis in a tin and only take it out when you plan to read a poem to it.

3. Never go back to a lighted haggis.

4. Burns should be run under cold water immediately.
