I’ve taken the xmas break as an opportunity to get out into the countryside, walk miles, run away from sheep (scarier than you think when they want to chase your dog!) and take lots of photos of snowy, misty countryside. I’ve enjoyed the break from thinking about how I become a viable business and have felt more creative from being out walking.
We found an amazing woodland up a hill and in the middle of fields, that was full of glass bottles, tin buckets, jars and broken ceramics, I’d heard of this bottle dump but never been able to find it, so the plan is to return when the ground is less frozen to dig for interesting bits of glass, I did find one piece of thick victorian style glass which found its way into my backpack.
I optimistically had taken my sketchbook out with me, but sketching clouds on wet paper while you stand on a frozen hill top is not that much fun…
