So true - some books have had their Appendix removed and their index fingered.

Hawthorn is one of my favorite plants. My painting is from a photo I took earlier in the year (for the flowers) and a branch of berries from a tree on the Nunnington Ridge near where I live. @awatercolouraday.bsky.social @flowerpainting.bsky.social #watercolour #watercolor #flowerpainting

Dame Jane Goodall remembered as 'true hero for the planet' Leonardo DiCaprio and Barack Obama are among those paying tribute to the leading conservationist.

Jane Goodall RIP. She has been a Titan that helped teach the World to respect the planet and all of its inhabitants. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... We must member her by action. @earthandenvleeds.bsky.social @priestleycentre.bsky.social @egu-ere.bsky.social @unileedsglobal.bsky.social

Autumn has come to Ryedale.

Marvelous and elegant, but what does it say? "Khemni 4 Dave."?

And this is the continuing self-interest that means no decent environmentalist should ever vote Conservative.

A walkway with an arch at the end. You can see a life preserver and a street light at the end of it. There is also trees and the side of the river. There is stonework, and balls of light reflected on the ground.

Wonderful walk in the Yorkshire Moors today. Autumn clouds and all the reds and myriad browns of the coming season, but with the warmth of the senescent sun.

...and here are the fruit mixes for the jams/jellies - 100% foraged! The sugar will be from the supermarket, though.

There is nothing like a foraging day in North Yorkshire - Huttons Ambo, with sloes, haws, elderberries, apples and various other berries.

Last night's Comedy About Spies was hilarious, but tonight's Back to the Future: The Musical was mind-blowing. Incredible!

The last 24 hours painting (and sleeping) have been quite productive :)

There is something special about lying in the long grass with paints in the summer. I now know that van Gogh's most important tool was his hat! #watercolours #flowers @watercoloursociety.bsky.social [St Petersburg watercolours, Oil paints with quick drying linseed oil and fineliners]

While eating tonnes of tomatoes a day (efforts to reduce the glut), I thought I might as well paint them too! (St Petersburg watercolours, sepia and while pencils and clear nail varnish).

Ripe plums, fuchsias dropping red tears on parched earth and too many tomatoes to eat even for a tomato fiend like me! Bank holiday weekend!
