Visited Wistman's Wood today & was excited to find 4 new fenced exclosures have just been installed, protecting naturally regenerating saplings from grazing
Great work by Duchy of Cornwall + their tenant farmer + Natural England to help restore this temperate rainforest

My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments.
I've collected his work here...

Michelle Mone-linked PPE Medpro wound up after order to repay £148m for faulty goods.
Company has £600,000 assets. Govt is unsecured creditor, won't recover anything.
Hard to trace money in offshore bank accounts.
Govt could sue directors for fraud, will take years, what will it recover?

The European Union has triggered Article 122 to indefinitely immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank, worth a whopping €210 billion.
I explain what just happened and why this is such a big deal for Europeans.

Cheering the two child limit ending isn’t patting Starmer’s Labour on the back or ignoring his record. It’s acknowledging 8 years of hard campaigning and ridding the country of a cruel, toxic policy. Half a million children won’t be hungry anymore. Celebrate today. Tomorrow, pick the next fight.

November shadows. Oil on fine canvas.
My series of documenting the light as it changes in my environment throughout the year. This is what happens around 8ish in my kitchen in November on a sunny morning.
(Paint still wet but I think it's finished)

As an older woman is arrested under the Terrorism Act for holding a cardboard sign, she's asked if she has anything to say.
Her response: "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action."

Confession time: The main reason for my trip wasn't to visit Blackpool. It was a pilgrimage to Preston for a visit to the brutalist bus station. It didn't disappoint.

'Logan's Rock, St Levan,' (c1916) perfectly demonstrates the height of Laura Knight’s development in Cornwall, this work is part of a series of paintings she composed between 1915 and 1919 all sharing an elevated viewpoint, dramatic diagonal composition and vibrant colour.

A good deal of my time spent on the beach at Jökulsárlón is trying to capture waves hitting icebergs, without the iceberg moving (and being blurred). Occasionally it all comes together :)
