"Substance abuse can bond people. But it’s also anhedonia. There’s no glamour. "

British Museum photo of a Romano-British brooch in the form of a hare. It is seen in profile with head to the right, displayed against a black background. The brooch is cast from copper-alloy (bronze), now grey in colour. The hare has a long body inlaid with green enamel and decorated with four copper-alloy dots arranged within the enamel along the length of the body. Its back arches gently and its legs are represented by one back and one front leg, both bent, with feet curling slightly inward, giving a sense of motion. The head is small with a narrow snout and one long ear rises up and backwards. The head is decorated with a large, circular, green enamel inlay, at the centre of which is a copper-alloy dot for the eye. The hare has an incised mouth with a slight upwards curve as if smiling!

Happy Easter!

Here’s a lovely Romano-British brooch in the form of a cheerful little hare! 😍

A detailed oil painting of a white duck against a black background. On its head sits a tangled crown of whole spring onions. The white bulbs point upwards, tied with string, the green shoots fall downwards in an elegant tangle. The duck is serene.

Been feeling a bit overwhelmed lately, so it feels like a good time to share my painting "Steady".
