Last year was not the most successful year for art sales with art markets being the first hit in times of recession but despite that we keep producing works, coz. that’s what we do. During the year we had our last visit to France as property owners though we will continue to go there and see our friends and be inspired by a familiar landscape. Two visits to Finland, including an excursion to Lapland, to visit Steve and Katri and the kids. Steve had a big project making 8 yurts for a holiday complex. We had a short visit to Iona to keep up our west coast island experiences in the company of our French neighbours. In August we had our open studio week which had a good turnout. The autumn, spent this year mainly at home in the rain and storms, seems to have passed quickly.

This year we have a Hurtigruten boat trip to the Norwegian fiords, on to Finland, and our first return to France to look forward to. With the closure of the Oban art gallery we’ll have to look for other outlets this year and be more proactive with our website and marketing
