Preserving a memory...
A couple of weeks ago a mate of mine asked if I’d like to preserve the memory of some old golf clubs and a lacrosse stick.

Have a great weekend peeps!

This week we decided to head to the beach. I took the opportunity of having the spare hands to shoot a piece for my Traveling Light series.
Firstly here’s what the locati…
Anna's Mini Christmas Puddings... and a little Christmas cheer from me! :D
375grams premade Christmas cake
50ml of sherry
FOR DECORATION:
100g white chocolate, finely chopped
6 red glacé cherries
6 green glacé cherries
Crumble the cold Christmas cake into a bowl, add the sherry stir briskly till all is incorporated.
Pinch out small lumps of mixture and roll so that you have little rounds about the size of a chocolate truffle.
You should get about 30 out of this mixture.…
In a rut creatively? Try a prop!
Inspiration comes and goes…
Sometimes it can be unexpectedly found by the use of props.
Ok… it’s a Tuesday night and the 
are out playing…
Random locales are explored and captured during random art experiments.
As I said, if you’re ever stuck in a creative rut… grab a prop and see what can happen…
