The weather just about held off this morning for the sketch walk with artist Clifford Stead. Thanks to the Canal & River Trust for organising the event, hopefully there will be more in the future!

Incredible to see the Northern Lights above Marsden last night.... lots of photos taken for future paintings! You can see my previous attempt to capture it at Enjoy Art this month, as part of my current exhibition.

Enjoyable afternoon sketching people at Marsden Junior School's Summer Fair. Thanks to all the sitters and everyone who made a donation to help raise funds for the school.

Looking forward to being part of Made Beautifully Here today. A celebration showcasing beautiful things from some of the best makers in the county and beyond.

Meet the maker, browse and shop. The event is taking place alongside the Woven in Kirklees Festival which brings together the whole community to celebrate the region’s incredible textile industrial heritage and its vibrant arts and crafts.

There also be food, drink, locally roasted coffee and musicians throughout the day, between 10am and 5pm.

I was up early this morning and was rewarded with this incredible sky. Reminded me of a loaded brush dragged across a canvas. Feeling inspired to try and recreate it later...
