It’s been a beautiful sunny day in York. I’ve had lunch in my garden, listening to the birds, which is absolutely delightful. This afternoon, I’ve been signing books in my studio for customers to pick up this week and next.

A couple of days ago, I posted a few photos from my walk from Arncliffe in Littondale. This was a linocut print I made of the view from the other side of the valley, looking towards the footpath on Cogar Scar.
