Spring?

Sunday 23. 02. 14 Took a ride to Marseillan this morning and then on to Sète and Meze before coming back to Clermont. I shot a video of the ride but so far have not been able to download it from my iPod. Once I have done that I will put it up on the web. This is a view of Sète from across the étang at Meze. It was a beautiful morning.

When in doubt

Friday 21. 02. 14 It is always hard to get back into the groove after being away. The above is a self portrait with my Turkish hat painted direct from life. I have also been working on some new monoprint techniques without success but with a great deal of frustration!!!

Wednesday 12. 02. 14 Got back home on Monday afternoon and have been enjoying milder temperatures and no snow. Did the market and café this morning. Went for a ride around the lake this afternoon. Lots of plants just about to flower hopefully signalling the arrival of Spring

Sunday 02. 02. 14 Went to an installation here by Mike Nelson. The main feature was an installation made of of 4 Airstream trailers the oldest of which was made in 1939. I have always wondered what the inside of an Airstream looks like and now I know! It was also Daisy’s birthday today – she was 21.
