Thistle Gallery

This one is in the Thistle Gallery, Park Road, Glasgow.

Brownston Gallery

Couple of paintings heading down to the Brownston Gallery
in Modbury, Devon.

Central Station

This morning was the first ever guided tour of Central
Station in Glasgow. Fascinating from the roof to the
Victorian platform deep down underneath the station.

Gosh it's been ages. I've been so busy. Here's a
slice of the garden to cheer us all up after the rain.

Detail from a painting I'm currently working on.

Scottish Boat Show

Exhibiting this weekend at The Scottish Boat Show in Inverkip
with the Concept Gallery.

It's a misty cold morning and I couldn't resist this
web. So complex.

Love the spiders web thread hanging off the left of the poppy.

Nice to see my big painting in the window of the
Mansfield Park Gallery, Hyndland Road, Glasgow.

Siran Exhibition

The three person exhibition in Siran near Carcassonne opened
on Friday evening. I have a selection of prints of paintings
upstairs in this delightful converted house. The vernissage
(opening) was very busy and spilled out into the street.
Unlike openings here, food is prepared and Jane Darling who
owns the gallery put on a lovely spread.
L'Ancienne Forge, 2 rue du Portail de la Sierre, Siran
Phone: 00 33 04 68 32 61 42
Runs until 26 September
10-12 every morning. 4-6pm Thursday and Friday.

Textures in a boatyard.

Some of the images in the exhibition in Siran.

This is an exhibition of prints of paintings. I'll be at the vernissage
which should be fun. Siran is about 40 minutes from Carcassonne.

The fabulous new Blackfriars Station which crosses the Thames.
It's platforms all the way over with ticket barriers at each end.
If you have an oyster card or a Travel Card then you can use
it to cross the river and get to the Tate Modern. Much quicker
than walking to the Millenium Bridge.

This is a must see exhibition. Only a few weeks
left to run.

Another picture of the island. When we got to the shore we
phoned and a boat was sent to pick us up. It's a lovely crossing.

This is the island off Cape Cod where we were staying. There's
only one house. It was all rather lovely.

Humpback Whale

Went whale watching off Cape Cod and luckily saw about
ten humpbacks. Last time we went whale watching was ten
years ago in Iceland and we saw one dolphin about sixty
kilometres from the arctic circle and it was freezing and wet.
This was much better...warm too.

Time trials in Glasgow

A day at the games

Great day at Hampden Park. Terrific atmosphere.

Just a few minutes by boat from Reykjavik harbour the
magnificence of Iceland surrounds you.

Glasgow

Sorry everyone...been away in Iceland and Cape Cod. Back now
to the Commonwealth Games here in Glasgow in a heatwave.
The city is looking great.
