I'm back in the studio today after a quick sketchbook break in Wales with friends. We stayed in "Wendy" a beautiful Edwardian railway carriage perched on the edge of the coastal path at Aberporth with wonderful views from all the windows...
Its such an inspiring place, with beautiful wood panelling and fantastic posters and memorabilia...
We quickly converted the beautiful dining carriage into a temporary art studio and had a wonderful time experimenting with plants collected from the coastal path...

It was a really special break, a chance to experiment with lots of new processes and I've come home bursting with ideas.
