Walking =

Unwinding

Gathering inspiration

Drawing in my mind's eye

 New boots

 

 Following a herd of deer

but not seeing them

 Blue sky

Red tiles

Hedge

 Sun in my eyes

 Sun on my back

5 km

Niggling achilles

A guest blog post for the Red Nose Day Dolls

This morning Emma entrusted me with the key to the Red Nose Day Dolls blog . . . so I've written about making tiny books (all in a good cause).

Please pop over to have a look and follow the Red Nose Day Dolls' further adventures leading up to their auction for Comic Relief on Red Nose Day.

The Red Nose Day Dolls on Facebook and on Twitter.

It starts with a seed

 

Seed potatoes

are chitting in my studio's porch . . . Foremost, Arran Pilot, Charlotte and British Queen.

Saved seeds

of Crimson Flowered Broad Beans have been planted in pots in the greenhouse.

Self-seeded
tiny seedlings around one of my Auricula plants.

Sprouting seeds
the Sweetpea seeds are starting to grow.

The Seed of Inspiration 

this was a surprise gift for being the 100th person to follow ceramic artist Karen Banks on Twitter. By complete coincidence that very same day, I'd seen Karen's beautiful framed collections of ceramic hearts being unpacked when I delivered my work to The Church Street Gallery in Saffron Walden; and when I drove past today, our work was side by side in the window display!

I've planted The Seed of Inspiration
in a pot in my studio.
