an assortment of pieces from the plan chest, trying to clear out and shoogle the grey cells.... #scottishartist #originalartwork #cycles #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

Kevin has his tinfoil hat on so we dont fall off the earth when the gravity fails 😉 colander at the ready, chances of glimpses=0 😅 #scottishartist #westcoastlife #solareclipse2026 #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

fascinating to watch, only on the velux windows, the annual ant dance, thankfully they dont venture inside! #scottishartist #nature #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

the water levels were well up at the lochside and the falls well worth a visit, the power of water. Good to get out!! #scottishartist #westcoastlife #nature #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

been framing nearly 20yrs now, where does the time go! a painting my late Mum insisted on buying from me years ago just for her, 'Presence of mind' now hanging in my freshly decorated sitting room 🙏 Today a soup (curried carrot & lentil) and knitting day, supposed to improve tomorrow 🤞 #scottish

another pretty gloomy wet day on the NW coast, not been very creative the last wee while but knitted a wee cushion cover with wool I'd spun ages ago, some I dyed myself with gorse and turmeric, other hanks came pre coloured 🌞#scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

a gorgeous encounter on the beach, think at one point they were using me for target practice, didn't capture that! beautiful birds 💚 #scottishartist #westcoastlife #nature #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

Lughnasadh,the colours gently changing as we once more begin the journey to Autumn, light lessens more quickly and the colours begin to glow 😊 #scottishartist #nature #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

woke at just the right time, a minute later, she'd disappeared behind the clouds... #scottishartist #nature #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

refilling one of the bookshelves, reminders for winter browsing! #scottishartist #healing #book #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

a much needed luck of paint 🎨 meditative but looking forwards to a brighter different looking space when it's done! #scottishartist #westcoastlife #colouryourlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

love this time of year, a few fungi for soup, fireweed leaves for tea and a beautiful fat slow worm (not for eating!) #scottishartist #fyp #cycles #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

a wee bit of light and dry would be much appreciated, ta 😅 the fairy lights are going on #scottishartist #westcoastlife #nature #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

sheltered walk in the arboretum, another rain warning tonight, ho hum, wouldn't be lush without it....Scottish summers eh.. 😅🌻 #scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

no summer here so far, so a bit of indoor upcycling on an old much loved pretty threadbare shirt..I'll get a bit longer out of it now 😊 #scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

a couple done earlier this year finally framed, wax, oil and paper, one in process and a wee wren 💚 interested, get in touch via my website😊 #scottishartist #originalartwork #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

not a chance of even a glimpse of the full strawberry moon the last couple of nights, so I doodled it 😅 #scottishartist #originalartwork #cycles #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

timed it right, weather closed in as I stepped back in the door! always take waterproofs in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😅 #scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

painted a few oystercatchers in my time, one nesting on the beach, glad to see it roped off as the ringed plover nest earlier in the year didnt survive tho think that was the stormy weather 🙄 #scottishartist #originalartwork #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

a bit of nature art on the beach #scottishartist #fyp #natureart #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

Summer solstice grasses 💚🌞

cards on the go for Gairloch Pharmacy and morning coffee entertainment, watching a blackbird gathering mealworm for her babies 🥰 #scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

the sun is finally making an appearance and Scotland is celebrating 🍾 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 not a footie fan but loving seeing the good stuff, much needed, well done 🌞 #scottishartist #Scotland #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

gotta love a Scottish summers day, a tad breezy and rain incoming, book and jammies it is then! #scottishartist #westcoastlife #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

strimming, I have to do strimming 🤣 I leave the long grasses to grow tho, beautifully wavy 💚 #scottishartist #cycles #nature #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

what started as a few unintentional dots evolved, no pre drawing or direction, just mark making and letting thoughts flow... #scottishartist #healing #originalartwork #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

we live in a temperate rainforest area, these are some of the rewards we get 🪻#scottishartist #cycles #fyp #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters

lucky to catch a glimpse in the early hours, enjoy your day 💙 #scottishartist #fyp #westcoastlife #talesfromthesea #unchartedwaters
