So after collaborating, managing, mothering, and doing the do, it’s nice to have a wee corner to do something just for me. Yes, I have a creative side. Now days that is mostly photography and painting. Like the image above, that is a detail of one of mine, This Way UP! I will share more works as time permits. Here is my current fav painting, it is a bit moody and dark, What Lies Beneath.

From 2017 to 2019 we lived beside the sea, at a cold beach. I have literally hundreds of amazing sea/sky images for inspiration. On winter weekends I could get up at 7.30am and walk 147 steps to the edge of the beach and photograph the sunrise. Here you go. Enjoy.

Like all good amateur photographers I use my iPhone 6 and I have no time for filters or fixing. I just do the do and enjoy. After my love of sky and sea, I adore close up images of plants, my kids doing dorky kid stuff and of course photographing food. I have a head for business and a stylist heart.

My other creative outlet is my kids. Oh yes, the best long term project I have been involved with is them. They are little lumps of human clay that the Mr and I get to model. It is a joy, except on the days when it is not. On those days, they are just hard work and I wish I could sack them (or me).
