I always enjoy the varnishing stage as you’re locking the painting in before it goes to the framers. The ‘c’ shaped vessel was my first attempt at pottery 30 years ago at Darlington Tech. I can still see lecturer Steve Gruffyd shaking his head at me. He’d be pleased I’m still painting though

Every single day - because people are not ideologies. Humans have never stopped evolving - we've not arrived at some static genetic state. Diversity exists, it always has. Just a shame that many think grade school biology suffices as a parking lot for critical thought.

3/3 Third painting in the Isle of Tiree series. A more abstract approach captures dramatic skies - and seas more Caribbean than Hebridean! ‘The Land Beneath the Waves’. Original oil on canvas #art #tiree #scotland #artforsale

2/3 I visited the Isle of Tiree recently and have taken three different approaches to try and capture its unique atmosphere. ‘Rain Incoming, Hynish Bay, Tiree’. The beach looks towards the radar station on Carnan Mòr - the highest point on the island #art #sea #sky #beach

1/3 I visited the Hebridean Isle of Tiree recently - my great, great grandfather was the Baptist Minister there long ago. I’ve taken three different approaches to try and capture this special place. ‘From Scarinish’ original oil on canvas board #art #oilpainting #sea

“Break in the Clouds, Sandside” original oil on canvas board

Took an acrylic painting class last week, based on this piece. 5 simple steps. Some had only been painting a few weeks. Here’s some results: One said, ‘I didn’t realise I could do this, it’s like the best therapy’ #art #acrylic #arttherapy

Best pie, peas and sad cake in Lancashire. The decor and serviceware haven't budged since @ 1972. Servers wear burgundy pinnies and greet you with 'y'alright then?' The correct answer will eternally and ever be 'not so bad, yu?' (I cannot WAIT to get back in that door)

When asked how fascism begins, Bertrand Russell said, ‘First they fascinate the fools. Then they muzzle the intelligent.’ Don’t lose your voice. #maga #trump #musk #fascism

This thread is geared towards a US audience, however is equally applicable to Australia, the UK, Canada & more. Substitute the names of your right wing, or overtly authoritarian politicians, and it's a very good guide for those of us who care about democracy & Human Rights in our communities 🔥
