Maps – as seen on the BBC
News of my maps has made it to a very nice article on the BBC website. I also appeared in a short item on BBC TV Oxford News in the bulletins at 6.30pm and 10.30pm, which was fun. If you’d like a map, please visit my online shop, or simply email me.
Hand drawn maps of Oxfordshire villages
When I began sketching my first map in June, I never anticipated that just a few months later I would be publishing a triptych of hand drawn maps. First came the map of Eynsham. After I’d finished it , I wanted to do more, so I set my sights on nearby Stanton Harcourt. Again, this [...]
Map of Woodstock
I have been working on a map of Woodstock. After hours and hours of work it is finally finished. Woodstock’s history is very long and much of it is recorded history, thanks to royal connections. Trying to fit everything in has been hard work, but a lot of fun. Here it is. Click on the [...]
Work in progress: map of Woodstock
I’ve been so busy since I last blogged, with work, life, family, reading and watching Big Brother; but during the bits in between I’ve been working on my map of Woodstock, the third in my map series. Woodstock has so much history and so many outstanding buildings that compressing it all into a sheet on [...]
Map of Stanton Harcourt and Sutton
I so enjoyed making my map of Eynsham last month, I thought I’d have a crack at the beautiful neighbouring villages of Stanton Harcourt and Sutton, where my family live. Click on the map to enlarge it. I have emphasised the natural history of the place, as well as the many gorgeous historic buildings, ancient [...]
Map of Eynsham
To amuse myself while recovering from a trapped nerve, I thought I would do a little gentle doodling in the form of a hand-drawn map of Eynsham, the village where I live. Click on the map to enlarge it. It’s my Eynsham and my drawing, so I make no apology for it not being to [...]
Exhibition ends
My Artweeks exhibition is now finished and I’d like to sincerely thank everybody who turned up to see my paintings and visit us: especially those who braved the rain on Saturday – all 74 of you! As well as regular visitors, friends and family from all over the UK, I was privileged to welcome into [...]
Artweeks continues
After a really busy weekend welcoming a total of 88 visitors to my exhibition we’re knackered (and hot)! That’s not a bad figure for an obscure artist in a little house tucked away in a small village! So many terrifically interesting people turned up; friends, family, families of friends, fellow-villagers, repeat visitors and lots of [...]
Eynsham Morris dance for the May, 2010
Eynsham, my home for more than a decade, is a wonderful village. Its sense of pride in itself and its history is tangible. This is never more clearly nor joyously expressed when than when the Eynsham Morris dance in the Square for the May. Villagers; families, neighbours, friends, many born here, gather in the Square… [...]
