WAVES


A last installation in the lighthouse.

AN END or A NEW BEGINING


As with my sculptures on the beaches everything is returning to how it was with only the memories of the experience lingering.
A wonderful time was had and i'm very greatful indeed, thank you all, you know who you are!

Spurn, monday 27th August 2007


all thoughts of art were over shadowed by the unfolding rescue by the lifeboats fron Spurn and Grimsby as the lifeboatmen got into trouble themselves whilst saving lives, overturned boats, fire on the yatch.
All turned out well in the end.
Always a big thankyou to those who risk their lives for us regardless of the perils ahead.

monday 9th July 2007


I've finally got back to the lighthouse, the flooding in Hull and Holderness has been awful, so many people have been affected.
My lights are broken with the damp but my artwork is ok, and its drying out slowly.
The sea and river are so calm, as if nothing happened in the last couple of weeks.

SPURN WALK Saturday 23th June 2007


The thunder and lightening, the pouring rain which struck us as we reached the point made for a spectacular yet slightly scary experience. One not to be missed. We got back to the lighthouse in time for a sandwich and a dry off.
