Finally made it to Margate to see my work on the wall, alongside all the other Semi Finalists from Sky Landscape Artist of the Year…..and very close indeed to a great Turner exhibition! 😱 What an unexpectedly unusual year 2016 has been for me. Thanks for all the good wishes. 🍾A very Happy New Year

It was a blustery cold day here yesterday near Pen y Fan but fantastic to be up in the hills in my boots after such a long time and also have the chance to stop and draw on the way down. Belated seasonal greetings to you all x
