Art + Stories
I started this blog/web-page in January 2008, in order to post images of my framed, original, watercolour paintings, which will be on show at local exhibitions (see latest blogs for venues) and also to publish some of my short stories and children's stories, which I hope you will read and enjoy.
Since October 2000, I’ve suffered from coccydynia, a painful medical condition aggravated by sitting. Needing something to do while standing, I took up watercolour painting. Meanwhile, as a contributor to a self-help e-group for coccyx pain sufferers, I was often told ‘you should be a writer,’ so I decided to give it a try – hence the stories, four of which have been published in the USA.
