Artist and surfer. Turning beaten up old sails into beautiful things

The rose is red because there's a photo in Twickenham of the 1914 England team, and the Roses of the poor souls who didn't return from the Great War are coloured in black, so a no-brainer to go red for this.

The fact that I have put Therese Coffey in charge of the NHS tells you all you need to know about my government.

Maybe the answer is the umpire should be Australian as well, one that said « Shut the fuck up yourself Kyrgios, or I’ll serve YOU at 122 miles per hour, now fucking play. »

Nadine Dorries is best know to millions for lying in a cabinet with bugs and cockroaches for company.

She also appeared on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.

I think that ticks all the boxes for the next PM.

Painted on a piece of old, bleached sail from Cornish Shrimper "Topsy". I'm really liking the fade from the sun damage.

The black headed gulls have got their summer plumage back. I love these birds. This hand carved one is sitting on chunk of old driftwood from Hillhead beach.

Really like the effect of the fish on raw sailcloth, especially with the dark stitching.
