The Wanderer Returns

It’s nice to be back at the studio if only for a few hours a day. My pup turns 10 months old 5th June and I’m giving her most of my time and energy. We’re taking the time she needs to adjust to being a big dog in a small city. We take our daily walks via a long bus ride to quiet places. She is just too big to be jumping up and chasing pigeons in the local park and it’s important for her to have free runs and the space to express herself without taking too many casualties! Perhaps in a year or so life will be back to normal, whatever that will be.

For the meantime time then, it’s online shows (another in the Autumn) with a few paintings and drawings. And steady work on my new project: a big drawing with hundreds of pets in pen and ink. Possibly with self published prints in time for Christmas. If you’d like to join in with the Big Picture and support my work, please join us at www.littlemustardclub.com
