@anniescottarch.bsky.social hi, I used to follow you on twitter. Lovely to find you on here.

Last week I had a belated birthday day out in York, with my girls. At York Art Gallery I was excited to see, Making Waves: The Art of Japanese Woodblock Print exhibition. It was a beautiful.

Congratulations to everyone involved.

Chesterfield’s Glow Up was brilliant.

When you’re finishing your ramen broth and “ the great wave off kanagawa” appears. So beautiful. 😍 #japaneseart.

Seaside postcards found in the Oxfam shop today. @seasideferry.bsky.social @seasidenetwork.bsky.social #seaside

I’m sharing this post in the hope it helps someone plagued by AI.

It’s snowing here, yay.

A treat for you in the New Year - the work at East Lomond, a major Pictish and late Roman fort conducted by Northern Picts and the Falkland Stewardship Trust will feature on the new series of Digging for Britain. The episode will be broadcast on the 28th January at 20:00 on BBC2.

Just wanted to let everyone know about this terrible situation involving art theft so people don't unknowingly buy from this site. You can support Matthew directly via his shop here: yokai.com/shop/ or Patreon here: patreon.com/theyokaiguy, and maybe re-share this to help spread the word. Thanks.

The Pictish force is strong.

The Oxfam shop never disappoints. There’s #archaeology #history and beautiful #architecture

Today I’m glossing in the back hallway, which has 5 doors!!! I haven’t been this ambitious in years. 😂 If this improvement continues, I might get to a “dig” next year. #archaeology

It’s been three years since I saw this beautiful exhibition at Beverley Art Gallery and it’s still one of my favourites. The final curator’s tour by @helenacoxcurator.bsky.social was wonderful and some of the collectors shared the stories of their items. A real joyful Japanese experience. 🥰
