This blog was started during a half-year sabbatical from full-time art teaching at St. John's International School in 2013 to develop my painting within the context of a Masters programme, charting my developing work in progress and related interests. Since retiring from full-time art teaching in 2025 I plan to continue to make posts that chart a developing meditative practice in art and life.
