Musings on our connection with nature, sometimes. Monotypes, drawings, collographs, collage at other times. Particularly keen on dandelions. "Simple and fresh and fair, from Winter's close emerging" (Walt Whitman). Wildflowers. Garden. Allotment. Lovely places.

I decided to work on some big drawings. Partly because I had been to Kew Gardens and wanted to draw plants and living things. Plants are wonderful things and I have been thinking again about the myths surrounding our indigenous plants. Mostly concerned with keeping away the devil, lightening, witches and other interesting things, but also the healing properties that they have. I have now discovered Kew have an exhibition about medicinal plants this summer. See this link. http://www.kew.org/visit-kew-gardens/whats-on/summer
