Having tried a few watercolours, I’m now trying some acrylic painting. I wanted to try a loose style. Quite happy with my first effort. #painting #acrylic #acrylicpainting #artsky #birds

Trying #watercolour #watercolor again this weekend. This time I took inspiration from a photo I took of a boat afloat on Dundrum Bay, County Down (incidentally where I live and that has been named “Best place to live” in 2025 by The Times

Continuing to try and do some #painting with these three #watercolours; a view of the Mourne mountains, an abstract escape, and a view of Maggie’s Leap (Northern Ireland). They aren’t great but I am carrying on anyway and framing what I do. #watercolour #watercolor

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
This is UNBELIEVABLE. Keir Starmer has just handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and I was so outraged when I he...

My wife went to a painting party with people from her work so my daughter and I decided to have our own painting party. I had no idea what to paint and tried to recreate an abstract painting from the web but in the end it evolved into this inexpert moody landscape. At least we had fun! 😀 #painting

…And the fountain pen that started it all off… A Parker Duofold my parents bought me for passing my A-levels all those years ago.
