Finding peace and joy to create again.

Nothing like a good dose of sunshine and tree shade in the Welsh hills and mountains to give a sense of well being and re-invigorate the creative slump.

Little things       

which are simple 

and divine

somehow let one breathe.

The joy of others completes your own.




















And, of course, others’ work makes you breathless with amazement and fills you once again with the wonderment of the world.

One Frosty morning: the amazing beauty found in a simple frost

Sometimes it's the simple things which excite and amaze. Something as everyday as a frost can give one such wonderful ideas that you are filled with excitement for the day. Frost creates some many amazing textures...

Like a soft fuzzy coat everything was covered in one way or another.  Once again in the dawn I am a child smiling and happy that a new day has found me alive and well enough to enjoy the frosty light and the quiet that seems to have fallen, muffling the sounds of busy life. A frosty quilted blanket of joy and beauty.

Enjoying Life: A walk in Cefn Onn

Out for a walk in Cefn Onn park

There is little I enjoy more than being out with my girls in the woods on a sunny afternoon. Lush scents of damp earth and growing things. Sounds of birds and laughter and splashing. Rich deep greens and browns paired with the bright flash of color from flowers. The soft mulch giving ever so slightly underfoot or a hand in mine, warm and little wet and gritty from the stream .... mmm so much to love and appreciate and enjoy

June 1st B is for.... (Beads, Blue and Beginnings)

I just started working on another bright piece with beads.
I love beads...little shimmery bits catching and reflecting light which you can hold in your hand...

I'm going to call this scarf Glorious Day; bright sun in the turquoise blue sky.
