Permanent Mark Up Reductions!! Cards now only £2.20!
In a desperate attempt to generate some sales here, and owing to the increasing base price here at RB, I have now reduced my markup permanently to a measly 4.7%. This means that a card from my portfolio now costs a paltry £2.20, a print under £10! So why not take a look? What have you got to lose?
My Crining Song
The lovely Les Magee has introduced the Bubblettes to a new term recently: “crining”. This refers to the round shouldered, hunched posture of PC users and pianists. She challenged us all to write a crining song. Here’s my effort…
I’m hunched over at my PC
And I’m trying hard to type
But my chair is tilting forwards
And it’s getting hard to feel
My bum, it’s getting number
And m…

The Fight For Imagination
I have a problem. Well, actually, I have lots of problems, but we won’t go into those right now. My main problem is work. It’s a problem most of the time, to be honest as I sit in a windowless office being blasted by ineffective air-conditioning while staring at a computer screen and pushing paper from point A to point B. And back again. Who says a degree in Ancient & Medieval His…
In An Artistic Wilderness
I tend to go through gluts in photography. One minute I’ll have hundreds and hundreds of pictures to process and then, suddenly, nothing.
The same is true of writing and music. The creative urges to compose in both media come in fits and starts – I’ll nail down several chord progressions at once and then dry up.
It can be terribly frustrating. Take now, for example. The reason s…
The Heart Of The Artist
I was having an interesting conversation with my photographer friend Ian the other day. He was comparing my work to his. In his words, his photos were more “documentary” or “factual” while mine were more “artistic” and “poetic”. I was quite flattered by the comparison as I have always wanted to convey emotion and narrative through my pictures.
But i…

So How Much Is Too Much?
I took a picture. I was up in North Wales visiting the in-laws, which is always a good opportunity to go out and take a few shots. I love walking out in Snowdonia, and they live right at its northernmost edge. So up the hills I went and then down into the next valley – walking in Wales is like that. Llanfairfechan was where I ended up. In a shady little spot with a lovely rock-strewn river …
