Did u know? Thistles aren't probably the first plant you think of when considering flowers for your garden, but they're essential for Painted Lady butterflies. They're the caterpillar food plant for these iconic winged beauties. So go on,let a few prickles self-seed into your outside space. 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🪲🦋🐛

These mosaics are amazing.

I love this painting.

Bad Bunny has a foundation called Good Bunny that distributes musical instruments, art supplies and sports equipment and funds programs to help children improve their lives. If you were looking for leadership you found it. God bless that dude.🙏

🤣

A new name to me - such impressive work.

These are beautiful.

This is well worth watching. I would, however, disagree with him when he denies being brave - he clearly is extremely brave to do what he does so calmly.

The Rebellion! exhibition will include a video with @imcmillan.bsky.social reciting the poem he wrote for the project, as well as folk singer Roo Bramley with their version of The Manchester Rambler - an early protest song about access to the countryside.

Took me a moment...

Hooray - Dry January is over!

Whenever I see these group portraits, I always think about the arguments there must have been about who stands where. Clearly, the man in the centre won!

This is stunning!

'Haunt of the Heron.' Archibald Webb began experimenting with woodblock printing in 1921 - most of his works are strongly identified with aspects of daily life around the Swan River in Perth, Western Australia.

Thanks for the lovely supportive comments about London marathon after this morning's episode of "More or Less". No idea if I can go under 4 hours - whatever the data may say, it feels a stretch. But I am confident of one thing: this is a great cause - please chip in if you can.

A 'lively snow scene' indeed - all those little figures!

Those colours!

There's a real sense of character in her face.

What does it mean to be a humanist, anyway?

This is our parody of "Piece of My Heart" by the amazing soulful Erma Franklin. Our version addresses the situation unfolding with #Trump and #Greenland, & has rude words - it's called "Piece of Denmark". In solidarity with all fellow Europeans facing tariffs and trauma. #25th youtu.be/jSDIkpwlqsA

After Trump dies, I predict that even those of us who already think the worst of him will be shocked at what comes out about his past.

I didn't write about the fundraising in this piece, but I am raising money for the Teenage Cancer Trust in memory of my cousin Winnie, who died so very young. Donations are very welcome and I'm so grateful to everyone who's contributed already. www.justgiving.com/page/tim-har...

"Murmuration over Lanhydrock Park", 2020 by Annie Ovenden, English painter #WomensArt

Lovely.

This is why I cancelled my Journeys project on asylum and immigration, it simply wasn’t safe for participants to share their stories and photos widely due to the risk of violence and intimidation by far right groups.

One of their best.

Shadow theatre?

This is lovely.

Signed..

This, please.

Robin amongst berries. 😍 Taken recently at RSPB Ham Wall in Somerset. 😊🐦 #birds 🪶 I still have some of my 2026 Birds calendars left, many reduced in price, here; www.carlbovis.com/2026-birds-c... 😊

My late mother-in-law had a great time as a land girl, where she had more freedom than she'd ever had at home!

Beautiful!

"he's a most notable coward, an infinite and endless liar, an hourly promise-breaker, the owner of no one good quality worthy your lordship's entertainment..." All's Well That Ends Well, Act III, Scene VI

I love the detail of all the different figures and their clothing.

Your last chance to see the Outsiders exhibition in its current form will be at Street Level Photoworks, Glasgow in April/May. That isn’t the end though as I’m developing a powerful new exhibition on homelessness, in collaboration with another photographer, which will be shown in Leeds in 2027.

....if you like women printmakers' artworks like these....you'll love the latest womensart book.... Reframing Women Printmakers 🧡!

This is beautiful.

My daughter moved the bench closer to the radiator so Marmalade could enjoy the heat.

I remember a lecturer at college saying “Art will out” Mankind has onvs. felt the need to applaud the wonder and beauty around him. What a wonderful carving

This is beautiful!

Iconic. French photographer Giles Caron took this photograph of Anne Kelly in Derry in August 1969 at the time of The Battle of the Bogside.

Diego who? 🤣🤣🤣

I'm a big fan of these ice skating pictures, and I don't think I've seen this lovely example before.

🤣

Love this!

Just a little reminder that tomorrow, Friday 19th, is the last day I can post prints in time for Christmas (UK only). 🎄
