Hiya Bobbie, oh I know. Its a real luxury to be able to waltz into my local art supply store and buy whatever I want. And to source plants out of season as cut flowers, or in garden centres. you’re so right. We ARE spoilt, and having the sort of experiences you had when you were younger allows you to appreciate it; something that not everyone can relate to. Thanks for the comment, it’s a lovely and important point that you make. x

I used to dig through our burn pile for bits of charcoal to sketch on brown paper bags. I was fifteen and desperate. My watercolor brushes left bits of hair or whatever the cheap bristles were made of. An artist will use whatever is at hand when the urge to create rules. I miss those days.

I enjoy looking at your marvels. You inspire.
