Look what just arrived from Dorothy.
Wonderful souvenir of a great day.
Now it’s time to fire up the Ghost Radio. Transmissions incoming.

Really enjoyed this piece, and the recurring buddleia reference.
A darker tone than other pieces, fitting for October.
As with previous pieces, I feel compelled to visit this place, to commune with the ghosts, but much more warily in this instance, lest malevolent spirits prevent me from leaving.

Life is eventful but good. Till the next time!

This is amazing. Sorry I couldn’t get along this weekend for our yearly ‘hi’ and catch-up.

Unbelievable! Absolute game-changer of a book. Can’t imagine it not existing. Has genuinely added so much to my life, resonating at a time of personal reflection of self, family, former selves, authentic self, intertwined with a personal rediscovery of Liverpool and all the ghosts I encounter.

Thanks for reply.
I’ve got stuck on just drawing from life (scenes/things, not people), but need to start working from photos, as I take a lot. Need to move away from trying to be accurate, and be more stylised, capturing essence over accuracy (which the photo has already done.)
Love all your posts

Love this. Did you work from a photo? Love how you select certain lines, keeping it clear.

Hi. Do the young usually migrate unaccompanied?
Has this one asking to be fed/being fed held White YW back from travelling with the others?
Will White YW migrate with this juvenile?
Thanks.

That would work out wonderfully. I’m already in town that day. 🤞

I love Foulshaw and visit 2 or 3 times a week. I usually visit at dusk or dawn, but was there last Saturday morning and I met Tom and Alistair from CWT. Wonderful individuals, passionate and informative, bringing the place to life.
