On our last trip to Scotland we came across a amazing old graveyard in the Milton of Campsie. Most of the graves were very very old and weather worn and you could not make out the writing in most of the cases. However it just had an amazing feel to the place…... at rest with the world. Time didn’t seem to matter here…

Have you ever been to New York? Can you even locate New York on an unmarked map?
-
I love sleeves and record cover art. This is my tribute to the genre. It is also certainly a tribute to Milton Glaser’s ‘I love NY’ design.

A wonderful old gnarled tree, seen in the grounds of Milton Lodge, Milton on Stour, Dorset. / I was drawn to photograph it because of the shadows of the branches across the grass, which seem to resemble roots.

I found this rusty old wheelbarrow and watering can tucked away behind the church at Milton on Stour, Dorset. / No doubt the gardener intended the items to be hidden from general view! / The scene could easily have been the same 50 or 100 years ago. /

Fill’d her with thee, a daughter fair, / So buxom, blithe, and debonair. / Haste thee nymph, and bring with thee / Jest and youthful Jollity, / Quips and cranks, and wanton wiles, / Nods, and becks, and wreathed smiles, / Such as hang on Hebe’s cheek / And love to live in dimple sleek; / Sport that wrinkled Care derides, / And Laughter holding both his sides. / Come, and trip it as ye go / On the light fantastic toe. Excerpt from “A’llegro” by John Milton (1631) At Geysir in Island in the glorious light from the mid-November afternoon Sun. This is basically an unprocessed image, straight off the sensor, apart from the fact that I cropped it to give me the composition I desired. Yes, the light was so intense that I did’nt realise I was overexposing slightly, but hey, I suppose those blown out spectral bits add more to the air of mystery & otherworldliness I was feeling at the time…eh… :-)

In his long narrative, “Milton”, Blake describes how the author of “Paradise Lost” returned from heaven and entered Blake’s foot in the form of a comet. Afterwards, the familiar world of the five senses turned into a shoe. Blake tied the shoe and walked with the Spirit of Poetry to the City of Art. A few years later, back in the ordinary world, Blake saw a twelve-year- old girl flying down to him. He mistook the girl for one of his own muses, and invited her into his cottage to visit with him and his wife, who could also see and hear “the spirits”. The girl explained that she was actually looking for John Milton. The older poet emerged from Blake’s foot, and in an apocalyptic scene, the ordinary world was transformed along with all of human perception. / Acrylics, metallic pigment and ink

Milton Abbas was originally called Middleton, that is middle tun the middle farm or hamlet. In about 933 a Saxon king, Aethelstan founded a monastery there. In 964 King Edgar replaced the monks with Benedictines. In 1752 the manor was sold to Joseph Damer (1718-1798), who later became Earl of Dorchester. In 1771 he decided to build a new mansion and he employed Sir William Chambers (1723-1796) to build it but the two men fell out and Chambers resigned in 1774. The new house was completed by James Wyatt (1746-1813). Damer also employed the famous landscape gardener Capability Brown (1716-1783). Damer decided to remove the existing houses in the town because they spoilt his view. He waited till leases ran out and in the 1780s he demolished the existing cottages and replaced them with new ones further away. He also moved the almshouses. The new settlement was renamed Milton Abbas.

Of many Wheels I view, wheel without wheel, with cogs tyrannic / Moving by compulsion each other: / Not as those in Eden: which / Wheel within Wheel in freedom revolve in harmony & peace. Shadow of delight…...Blake ties the sandal and, guided by Los, walks with it into the City of Art, inspired by The Spirit of Poetic Creativity. This painting is dedicated to Catherine Blake who was the wife of the poet, painter and engraver William Blake (1757–1827), and a vital presence throughout the life of the artist. 5th February 2009

“The nature of infinity is this: That every thing has its / Own Vortex; and when once a traveller thro Eternity. / “Has passd that Vortex, he percieves it roll backward behind” / “His path, into a globe itself infolding; like a sun:” / “Or like a moon, or like a universe of starry majesty,” / While he keeps onwards in his wondrous journey on the earth / “Or like a human form, a friend with whom he livd benevolent.” / As the eye of man views both the east & west encompassing / “Its vortex; and the north & south, with all their starry host;” / Also the rising sun & setting moon he views surrounding / His corn-fields and his valleys of five hundred acres square. / “Thus is the earth one infinite plane, and not as apparent” / To the weak traveller confin’d beneath the moony shade. / “Thus is the heaven a vortex passd already, and the earth” / A vortex not yet pass’d by the traveller thro’ Eternity.. / The Sea of Time & Space thundered aloud / “Against the rock, which was inwrapped with the weeds of death” / “Hovering over the cold bosom, in its vortex Milton bent down” / “To the bosom of death, what was underneath soon seemed above.” / A cloudy heaven mingled with stormy seas in loudest ruin; / “But as a wintry globe descends precipitant thro’ Beulah bursting,” / With thunders loud and terrible: so Miltons shadow fell / Precipitant loud thundering into the Sea of Time & Space.”...excerpted from Section 2…”Milton” by William Blake Sea and Sky meet in thunderous array….Inspired by the mystical writing of William Blake, “who was considered mad by contemporaries for his idiosyncratic views, but held in high regard by later critics for his expressiveness and creativity, and for the philosophical and mystical undercurrents within his work”..... / This piece is also influenced by the style of William Turner, “considered a controversial figure in his day, Turner is now regarded as the artist who elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painting. Although renowned for his oil paintings, Turner is also one of the greatest masters of British watercolour landscape painting. He is commonly known as “the painter of light” Wiki…....

Octo: Wendy Taylor, 1980 location / Stainless steel, water / Outside Norfolk House and Ashton House, on the corner of Silbury Boulevard and Saxon Gate, Milton Keynes, UK / Commissioned by Milton Keynes Development Corporation and sponsored by, and donated to, Norwich Union Insurance Group Octo was commissioned specifically for its site in Milton Keynes. Its twisting ribbon of stainless steel makes a figure of eight when viewed from one direction but changes radically as the viewer walks around the sculpture. The ribbon is based on a Möbius strip (with a double twist), a mathematical term describing a continuous surface created by twisting a long rectangular strip of stainless steel through 180º and joining the ends; the form neither has an inside nor an outside. The artist has sited the sculpture on a pool of water to emphasise its point of contact with the surface and to set up a continual play of shifting reflections as the shining sculpture reflects in the water and in the surrounding mirrored buildings. The sculpture is a memorial to Lord Llewelyn-Davis. [From MKWeb] / . / The name Octo comes from the Greek word for “eight”. The status is also locally know as “Eternity” Note: I have copied the text from the site above verbatim, but I personally disagree with one point – this isn’t a Mobius strip!

Bradwell Windmill, off Grafton Street V6, Milton Keynes The New Bradwell Windmill was originally built on an acre of land purchased by Samual Holman in 1803. / / Before Bradwell Mill was built people from the area probably relied on water mills on the Ouse or Bradwell Brook. It has been beautifully restored to working order by the Milton Keynes Development Corporation. Inside there are 3 floors, the stone floor, the bin floor and the dust floor at the top. On the front of the mill you can see one of its original millstones used to grind the flour. An item of Bradwell Windmills eccentricity is the small fireplace on the ground floor. Only one other mill in Britain is known to have taken this extraordinary risk as flour dust is notoriously explosive. Very few visitors to the Mill ever notice the flue opening outside. New Bradwell Windmill is now a Grade II listed building. Legend has it, that the Mill is being haunted… In 1685 the daughter of a local miller was sought in marriage by two youths, one of whom killed the other in a fit of jealousy. After which he was gibbeted for his crime and shortly afterwards the girl herself was found dead in one of the upper compartments of her father’s mill. Her ghost is now said to haunt Bradwell Mill. Opposite to the mill is another interesting local site, the Grafton Street Aqueduct which carries the Grand Union Canal over Grafton Street.
