About me

This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now. And instead of calling it work, realise it is play. The only thing that is ultimately real about your journey is the step that you are taking at this moment. That’s all there ever is. I’m here to tell you that the path to peace is right there, when you want to get away. When you are present, you can allow the mind to be as it is without getting entangled in it. If you miss the present moment, you miss your appointment with life. That is very serious!

Balmy autumn days

"Now Autumn's fire burns slowly along the woods, And day by day the dead leaves fall and melt."
- William Allingham

W&N watercolour in my Moleskine 200gsm Nature Journal

Balmy autumn days and the landscape is softly turning yellow, heralding that winter is close.

    Hi Maree. Lovely sketch , the earth looks so dry almost like sand. I love your free flowing style. Sometimes I achieve it and other times I over work it, then the colours end up looking muddy !

    Maree - such a beautiful sketch...looks like it could have been drawn from somewhere close to my home. Hard to believe that you are in autumn and we are just getting to spring. Hope you have a lovely day.
