A bit of fresh air

A short break from the studio on Sunday. Cycled to where the road runs out further up the glen  from Laggan to listen to the stags roaring. We found a lonely newt trying to gain some warmth from the road and carefully removed him to a rock to save him from being squished by a car. This is a beautiful and wild part of the world about to be blighted by huge electricity pylons,  the type of progress I'd rather do without.

It's raining on Skye....

I'm spending a few days on the Isle of Skye with a fellow artist friend, the weather has turned wild and we have been holed up in the studio making art and laughter. Perhaps we will venture out tomorrow and then again , perhaps not.......
