While forest furs the earth, a subterrain shrugged from shrubbery and trees mulches over land’s rock-bones, our lungs unpleat and iron streams our veins. 'The Gleaning' Fay Musselwhite A new collection Published today by Longbarrow Press: longbarrowpress.com/2026/04/30/t...

Norse sea. Two hours of plein air painting. Big seas, near gale force winds and frozen hands. Wouldn’t have it any other way :)

Recentish wandering...

Experimenting with hand-colouring pinhole photos with watercolours. I‘m terrible and impatient with painting, but it‘s turned the forest into something else and I quite like that.

Holiday lighting

Bernd & Hilla Becher – Basic Forms “They have to be as neutral as possible. That makes it possible to compare them. That means no bright sunshine, no snow, no moonlight. And then you can compare anything that’s taken from a similar angle.” – Hilla Becher www.photobookstore.nl/product/bern...

I am excited to announce, Yarrow which will come out on June 4th on Music To Watch Seeds Grow By. These works are inspired by my time as an artist in Residence at Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, a remote wilderness field station in Gothic, CO. patriciawolf.bandcamp.com/album/music-...

Gerry Johansson - "Antarktis" (2014) - "The glaring light made it hard to gauge distances and heights. What looked like a rock fifty metres off could just as well be a mountaintop rising over the ice plain ..." - more at josefchladek.com/johansson

Being bombarded with AI slop and internet detritus all day means these small books of really beautiful moments from everyday life become *way* more important. I'm a big fan of Iain's work, so just sitting with these images is like dunking yourself into a warm bath on a shit day.

'Cobbled Bridge' by Trevor Grimshaw (1947-2001).

There's a Hookland dialect word - greenhole – used to describe the powerful attraction of a dark way into the woods. 'Going down the greenhole' is usually reserved for that moment when the path ahead intensifies into a tunnel-like pitch and yet you know won't turn back. – #MattAdams, 1982 #WOTD
