An image from "This Is All There Is". A continuation of themes I have explored previously; beauty in the banal, the mundanity of ordinary objects and places and achieving immortality through creation.

This is stunning work by Shaun, honoured to call him a friend. We were lucky enough to travel to Cardiff recently to see this exhibited. An insight filled with love and respect.

Here is the progress on my latest commission. This cross is for the church in Llantrisant in oak salvaged from the church's bell tower which is undergoing refurbishment.
The rays will be gilt with 24K gold and Oak will be fitted in between them.

You have to wonder just how many more people have to die before something is done. The answer would appear quite a few.

Aside from all the many many issues with mass gun ownership there’s the realisation that guns are products and that someone somewhere is profiting from all this death.

Wotsits - Wikipedia

Sometimes the world can seem a difficult and confusing place and it seems easy to give up hope of things ever getting better. But then I'm reminded that Wotsits has an extensive and detailed entry on Wikipedia. For some reason this gives me hope.

The original batch of these sold out really quickly so I'm just seeing if there's an appetite for a second run somewhere around late October, so that you can buy them in time for Christmas gifts? Let me know and if there's enough interest then I'll work on getting some done by then :).

Just a gentle reminder. Forgot to mention that there's also a fantastic exhibition of art on the walls by local artists.

Would love to see you there.

There’s that thing about a famous golfer, who when asked home come they were so lucky, replied with something like, β€˜funnily enough, the more I practice, the luckier I get….’

May have got that wrong but it sounds right.
