Hi Donnie

I know, its not a bad way to earn a living, right? Although sometimes when I’m gathering specimens in the pouring rain or when I spill a cup of tea over everything Ive been painting for the last week it can feel a tad bleak. But in seriousness, yes. I am incredibly lucky to earn my living doing something I love.

I lvoe your honeysuckle tale! being stung by the irate honeysuckle owner, how funny. Although probably not so at the time. There is also something special about time spent as a kid at grandparents. You didn’t need to do or be, so the chance to sit in little places was a reality. My granny had laurel bushes, so I nested in amongst those. I think I know what you mean about those spaces.

Thanks for the comment!
