My original pen & ink drawing on watercolour paper, 16" x 8", and, because I think that's what it may be about (!), it's titled "Mental Health". It's available to buy for £95.00 plus postage and packing.
Just message me.

Working in the studio this evening on this abstract painting. Still enjoying exploring how the artist's brain and hand creates abstract images, by painting them, and by reading around the subject too.

Morning people. Some mornings Millie, my Studio Assistant likes to begin with tearing up advertising leaflets.
That's it. She doesn't get them anywhere near the recycling bin, but y'know...small steps...🤭

I missed that Donald has put his own criminal lawyers in at the no 2 and 3 spots at the DOJ. Is any of this stuff being called out in America? Because this is entry level dictatorship bullshit.
