Abstract Landscape Painter.  Rural Dweller.  Lover of Modernist Art and Design.

12 February

Frost and sun.  The stream is full of ice as I go to feed the sheep - blue ice, reflecting the deep hue of the sky above.  I leave the Hebrideans chomping happily on their hay and set off walking with Millie.  The air is crisp and the light bright.

Later, en route to the studio, Barry tells me that he has counted 7 crocuses appearing in his garden.  He has sat in his sun house for the first time this year and enjoyed the warmth, sheltered from the breeze.

I measure and saw up boards for painting and then begin once more the multi-layer gesso preparation process.
