The sun is finally shining! ☀️🥂

Do you spend your time relaxing outdoors only to feel like your garden is missing that one final "wow" factor?

Have you ever considered using art in the garden? 🖼️🌿

It could be the final piece of the puzzle for a truly finished outdoor sanctuary.

Aluminium prints are my favourite way to add personality to a space, they stay vibrant and stylish regardless of the British weather (no fading or rain damage here!).

I’d love to see what you’ve been working on! Share a photo of your garden project in the comments below! 👇

"Real Food, Real People, Real Friendship."

When our daughter Jenny moved to France, she was on a mission to find a reliable source of ethical, high-quality meat.

That search led her to Vert et Plein Air—and an introduction neither of them will ever forget.

The plan was simple: Rachael (the force behind the farm) would leave Jenny’s pork in the barn fridge with the light on for a 5 am pickup.
But Rachael’s parents came home late, saw the light, and—thinking it was a mistake—locked the barn tight!
Jenny arrived at the farm in pitch darkness, searched high and low for the pork, and eventually had to wait for sunrise. But from that first chance meeting, a firm friendship was born.

Rachael’s knowledge of piggery is second to none. At Vert et Plein Air, she’s part of the "new wave" of ethical farming, focusing on:

✅ Rare-breed pigs raised outdoors
✅ Sustainable practices
✅ Transparent, family-run operations

Jenny and I visited the farm in February after 8 weeks of rain, the pigs were having the absolute time of their lives in the mud! (Check out the photos—their joy is infectious! 📸)

Rachael and her father are currently converting a barn into a brand-new coffee shop and farm shop.

It’s a true family affair with her husband Alun and their children, Albie and Autumn, all engaged in its success.

If you’re ever passing through the area, I can’t recommend the "to-die-for" sausage rolls and pork pies enough. 🥧

Since I didn’t get a photo of the new barn shop yet, I’ll just have to go back for a coffee when it opens! Anyone want to come with me? ☕️

"I thought it was a magnificent painting...

BUT it's a photograph."

I caught this whispered reaction to my piece ‘Flirtatious’ recently at Art Surrey Art Fair and it’s stayed with me.

To me, that has to be the highest praise. If an image can blur the lines of reality and move you before you even know what you’re looking at, it’s doing its job.

Surely art is about the connection and not just the technique?
I’m curious - “What do you see first: a painting or a photograph?"

In a world that never stops moving, we all need a place for the eyes to rest.

"Deep Spirit" is a quiet presence. It doesn’t demand your attention; it invites your contemplation.

Through the soft transition of monochrome tones, this piece captures a moment of pure, unhurried existence.

Having this on your wall is like a visual exhale—a steady reminder that there is power in stillness and beauty in the pause. 🖤
