The hill behind Paradise is Painswick Beacon and on a clear day you can see what seems to be half of England and the outline of Wales. There’s a quarry nearby by the name of Catsbrain, no idea why it has a name like that, but it was from this area that the stone for Gloucester Cathedral was quarried.
Last evening we went for a walk to the top of the Beacon and it was a vivid green for miles, with the River severn glinting in the distance and the Malvern Hills clearly visible too.
The Severn in the distance
Spotted this triangular leafed plant on the way back, pointing at a brilliant blue summer evening sky.
Ah, a photographer as well as an artist! Go figure!
It’s kind of you to say so,I used to think of myself as an illustrator, then came to terms with being a cartoonist, and am comfortable with that, but artist covers a multitude of stuff, so now I’m not so sure.
