I haven’t made much in the way of prints or books this past
three weeks but I haven’t just been twiddling my thumbs
We have been on holiday for a week in Scotland, eight adults, one four
and one three year old and two babies. The weather was glorious and I was so
busy I didn’t take many photos., though I do have this one of a rather nice shed in Castle
Douglas.
I also spent a day in the gardens at Millbarn, they are the
project of a member of the Art Society and we go there each year to draw and
eat. Very little drawing this year but I did take photos, mainly of his
wonderful garden structures. This one is half way up a cliff and you cross a
rope bridge to get there from the garden.
And gardening brings us back to the allotment. This has been
occupying us most days. We’ve had it 2 months today and it has gone from this.

Its addictive. We go down after tea to water and do a bit and end up coming back in the dark.
