From one storm to another


Lamar Peterson "Rope" 2008, his new work is now on view at Richard Heller Gallery in Santa Monica, Los Angeles.
If you cannot see the show itself do look at the website. This new body of work; paintings and collages are unbeliveable. Truly fantastical surreally real. A world akin to Hieronymous Bosch.
Congratulations Lamar! I am psycho/ed.

Easter and the winter storm


This spring equinox under the full moon brought a winter snow storm over the British Isles. Time to cosy up with hot cocoa, candles and a visit with the Moomin family!
When I need comforting I visit them. They are such wonderful, wise and cosy beings.
This Easter we are buried in snow and the cats are indoors.
There has been a watershed turning point in my life and those dearest to me which arrived with the equinox.
It is a welcome change and long in the coming.
Now is a time for reflection and re-evaluation.
Happy Easter to you!

Dear Anthony Minghella


This is a beautiful photo of Anthony Minghella in Buenos Aires in 2000.
I am saddened and shocked by the news of his untimely death yesterday in London at the age of 54. It is a great loss to all who knew and loved him and were touched by his work and person.
My condolences to his family and friends.
Let us celebrate his life and work and love of poetry!
