August 12, 2025. Dahlia.

A calm alpine lake sits below a forested ridgeline, its still surface reflecting the surrounding evergreen trees and soft summer light. The shoreline curves gently along the water, with no people or structures visible, emphasizing the quiet, natural setting. The scene feels peaceful and unhurried, inviting a sense of stillness and pause.

Tucked below the ridgeline, an alpine lake sits calm and untouched.
Moments like this make it easy to stay a while.

“The Atacama offers some of the world’s darkest, clearest skies—which is why it also hosts several of Earth’s most important ground-based telescopes…”

Beautiful sunset tonight.

Goodnight from Colorado 💙 💤

A watercolour print of a great spotted woodpecker on a tree with a blurry green background.

The 'Woodpecker & Shadows' print is now live. Thank you all so much for all the support and wonderful comments I've received with this painting, I've honestly been blown away.

An original artwork of a blue tit perched on a cherry blossom branch. Created using acrylic paints on A4 board.

Today's WIP (work in progress). It seemed like a good idea, but that was before enough coffee had been consumed.

Mount Moran appears in all its summer splendor in Grand Tetons National Park. View from Leigh Lake. The lake waters are light green with patches of darker color where the breeze is ruffling the surface. The gentle slope of a hill is seen at the other side of the lake, with a thick forest in dark green. The blue sky behind the mountain is half covered by white and grey clouds.

A heavily worked oil painting still life on gessoed board. The ceramic owl on the windowsill and the African carved bust on the right have both appeared in various paintings and drawings.

Still life in oil sold at a Cambridge Drawing Society exhibition in 2020. This one shows quite a bit of impasto built up during the process of composition.
