Undisrupted sleep evaded me last night so I got up at 6 and was sat outside my hut by 7 a.m. I watched a magnificent sunrise, I can not post pics currently as they are on my camera. I watched the town’s unofficial swim from a distance but heard the collective gasp as they entered …
Well a dry day forecast but light easterly wind. We had 11 hutters opened up during the day. People left at different times for their Christmas / family time. My day – I sold and put a Yr 3 Swanage Primary print in a frame with the addition of a St Andrews flag as part …
Sunday, due to be light rain, but then apart from a drizzly phase a cloudy and mainly dry day. A mixed day. Away from my art focus I had my day affected by a conversation with my eldest son – he has figured in posts on my personal blog previously. Today I have to pass …
Yes, the sun shone, we had lots of visitors. Kelp the shantymen sang and Judith Opsblum was crowned Artisan of the Year 2018. Oh yes and I wore my art suit. So here are photos of the art pieces on my #handdrawnsuit. Starting with the back and the event itself and my timeline and roles …
The shortest day it may be, but it was also the best day in December for us so far, dry all day! The highlight of the day was the visit of Biker Santa who entertained us all. As AndyKnillArt I continued with my overall / boiler suit art pieces and added three extra original art …
A dry day forecast and apart from one afternoon heavy shower that was the case. There were reports of lots of visitors in Swanage for the Santa Specials on the Swanage Railway. Numbers at the beach huts varied. My focus today was to add to the art on my new boiler suit / art suit. …
Well a forecast which optimistically could be interpreted as dry with showers. instead showers with some dry. Sophie in hut 28 and I were entertained all morning by the changing colour of the sea and sky as Ballard Down and the Isle of Wight came into view, were obscured, vanished and so on. We both …
So the forecast is windy and wet, not a hut day. So of course being stubborn I opened up this morning and only expecting to see Karen in Hut 20 later. She then was diverted by a matter elsewhere but Denise and Judith 21 and 18 came for a while. Rain started late morning. Just …
Sunday had a dry morning but a wet afternoon. Monday was gloriously sunny and calm in the morning and cloudier in the afternoon. So the weather has not been particularly helpful at weekends so far. It has two chances to redeem itself. I used Sunday to sit outside in the mild morning air without lots …
The forecast was foul, the weather was foul. We still had 18 huts open by 11am. I gave up by 1.30 pm but I am glad I went – such great spirit by our Artisans. Bring on Sunday and calmer weather …
