life and lino


My main tools...plus eyes and hands of course.

These prints will be the next ones on etsy,one tonight and the other tomorrow morning.

Rising was difficult this morning..as was getting heads into gear! 

We went and hedge trimmed as the weather was dry and warm...and collected the last three bags of cooking apples ( the frost had seen off the last of the eaters) and two buckets of Japanese quinces that are mostly ripe.
There is still a mass of windfalls but these are feeding the wildlife, insect , mammal and bird. The orchard was full of birds, including a cock pheasant.
With the shoots going on quite a few pheasants appear in odd places,looking disorientated...no surprise there,but sad.

The prints are so, so lovely. I'm surprised your hands don't hurt every morning. Mine do, for no reason whatsoever.

Good looking, and the frame choice is just right.
