A drier forecast but the steady breeze meant it never fully cleared up here. Some sun, but sea mist kept intervening. 26 visitors today so up to 228 total. A mix of walking family groups, friends and locals. Today saw some more activity at the art table and I decided it was too windy for …
The weather turned… my first visitors this morning were Becky and friend with their children who all produced artcards and enthusiastically tucked into the biscuits on offer. They came while the weather was windy but dry. Not long after they departed (but hopefully after they were back in the car) the weather moved in, misty …
Yesterday I apologise to my morning visitors whose artcards I failed to post as photographed on another device so let’s right that first. Olly who visited on Sunday wanted to set a pose for my drawing mannequin – proof that I haven’t changed it yet, nor has anyone else. So Tuesday, the bank holiday has …
So, after I posted yesterday one of my friends who visited posted about his visit on Facebook and I have thanked him already but felt very humbled to be honest. So a new day, the forecast overcast and maybe sunny spells but a stronger westerly breeze. The morning was very quiet until a family group …
A day of changeable weather and lots of friends. We started the day with cloudy overcast and a fresh breeze when Dave Furmage our Purbeck morning bike cycle mechanic dropped by for a coffee, chat and visit.

Yes, I slept well and got up later today. So what kept me busy today? At the start of the morning about 08.30 the pictures were on the floor of the studio. I put a sign out to say visitors were welcome but I was still preparing the studio. I also put out my original …
So restless night and couldn’t get back to sleep so got up to do a distraction activity, two hours later, seven mounts trimmed and seven prints framed. What a positive start to the day. Then it as breakfast and a new job, important with visitors coming…cut the grass. I did 3/4 this morning. So the …
Today I was on duty at the Purbeck Artisan Yard. In my rough plans, I had finished with Rollington Barn my work is there ready for hanging, placing on racks etc.. The focus was to be a shelving unit I had been given in an artisan draw, help prep. building and add to my art …
…well from my point of view. So after work at the river today I delivered my original piece, five prints and twenty cards plus a laminated advert for my studio. Next…I now have some more shelves available for me to use in the artisan yard, so when on duty tomorrow I am going to display …
