All very interesting. My partner and I, as Fall in Green, took part in Morecambe Poetry Festival last year, one of the UK's largest. Interesting to read about this and the Dodge Foundation.

This, some of my very earliest music, was reviewed by CU Amiga magazine (I guess in mid-late 1991?). Oddly this disc never appeared in any PD library. I haven't had a copy in decades, I lost most of my Amiga discs when I bought my first PC around 1999, so it's probably lost forever.

Thought I'd share another poem today. Here is 'Lion Tamer' from my collection The Burning Circus. The book has a theme of circus characters, but with a few hidden depths and structures, other meanings. I hope you like it.

If you ever do, try to avoid London and visit the north; Cheshire, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, or Scotland. Cities are the same everywhere. It is the rolling fields and wild nature that make each place different.

My latest music video. Here is 'Two Kinds of Animals' from The Modern Game 2026. 'There are those that like towns like the fox and rats, and those that avoid us like birds and bats, but unless they can help us we put out traps'.

Thanks. Actually, I did paint a migraine painting years ago, when I first started painting. I'll post that one day.

I used to set up exhibitions but not much now. I have some work on display in one gallery here in Cheshire, the Oil Art Advisory in Knutsford, plus occasional small exhibitions nearby, a small number per year.

I'm reading Kafka's diaries at the moment, inspiring. Not heard of Khalil Gibran. I'll note the name.

Well spotted.

Inspired by an ancient childhood memory, so no idea about the reality.

You're welcome. Her paintings are wonderful. I was lucky to see Eine Kleine Nachtmusik in person a few years ago and still remember how different, much better it was in person. That memory itself probably influenced this painting.

Aw, thank you. It's always special when someone resonates with a painting.

She Was Always Asleep At School She Was Always Asleep At School - Galleria Balmain The idea began as a study of sleep. I changed the title when reminded of a girl in my class at our infant school, always asleep due to a troubled family life.

No prints sorry, there is just one original painting and that's it.

Thanks. Violets can be hard to handle. I've tried to include some...

Nice. I have some ideas but a lot of what comes out is unconscious, I don't want to overthink it, so it's quite possible that there are truths and things in there that even I don't realise.

Thanks. I've somehow always painted in this way, more evolved than inspired.
