Today I’m writing my monthly inspirations on the shortest day of the year, the 21st of December – or the winter solstice. This is a little selfie I took on Holkham beach earlier in December with the warm sunlight bursting forth. It was so beautiful to be on the beach again. I went there looking for some inspiration for my online art course with my lovely husband Mr. Ross. He took some video of me sketching and lots of photographs – some of which I may use for the course.

I had a great time at Art Fair East and sold 5 paintings and enjoyed meeting lots of new and interesting people. Thank you to anyone who came to visit.

Here is a link to an interview I enjoyed with the Revd Canon Susanna Gunner for the Norwich Diocesan House Advent calendar website. It is all about my artistic journey with art and faith. I hope you enjoy reading it and you can also listen to it. It’s very short! Click here to view.

So, that’s a wrap for this year and I’m very thankful to each and everyone of you for your support and encouragement online and off – art really is a leap of faith!

Wishing you a peace filled Merry Christmas and a Happy Creative New Year.

God Bless
