It always an honour to paint. This was particularly quite powerful and hard to let go. This morning I dreamt of birth —-SO .. lots of new beginnings.
....Here is painting I completed last year in October 2019. It’s called ‘Here Skylark’ and it’s owner lives in Pensford. The tattoo was designed in January 2019 and was drawn at the same time. The tattoo lives on a beautiful person in Rio in Brazil. Isn’t art wonderful in flight🧡

Holding
Clouds still, with gentle movement,
Altering shape,
Still one,
Senations sounding silent,
Forming time to be seen then gone.

uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundraiser-display/showROFundraiserPage?userUrl=movingmountainsformalawi... I have to honour of being asked to design a certificate for the children who have raised so much money ‘Moving Mountains for Malawi’ ...The children have embraced this amazingly well. The sun is made up of fingerprints from the organisers family ( Emma Scott) Part of family are also medics in Malawi.
I approached the design thinking in terms of connection- touch- feeling and of course SPOTtimespotTIME .
Thank you. Please feel free to donate to this wonderful cause. www.bristol247.com/news-and-features/features/north-bristol-primary-school-raises-money-to-help-m...
‘Nightingale Crossing- A New Song to Sing’ Dec 19 - April 2020.
It started as a painting late last year. I usually had it in the background when gaining later fingerprints in my home. During the Covid Crisis I became ill and cut the picture and finally reassembled. A nightingale flying over the virus. The Nightingale saw me through a journey.

Happy Memories 🙂 x The UK tour was such a success and now the artwork resides in Westminster Reference Library in the West End - London.
Antonios Nielsen made the wooden casing and moved the installation all over the country. Thank you 🙏 Tony.
The library was opened by W. Foxley Norris, dean of Westminster, on 8 October 1928 to replace the former library of the parish of St Martin in the Fields. The Leicester Fields chapel, built by the Huguenots in 1693, was once located on the site. Isaac Newton lived on a house on the site from 1710 to 1727, and later the house was occupied by the novelist Fanny Burney. The cellars of the house are part of the current building. The library was designed by the architect A. N. Prentice for Westminster City Council, and built by Walden & Company of Reading.It was modified in the 1950s and 1980s
Collections Edit
In addition to a general reference collection, the library has specialist fine art and performing arts, business and law collections.Elaine Robinson’s Turning ‘ages exhibition is now on display at Junction 3 Library until Saturday 31st May. This highly imaginative installation looks at the letters, poems, postcards and ephemera left with books, to tell a series of fascinating and compelling stories, which are both absorbing and thought provoking. Well worth a look!
