Drawing and photography are central to my practice. Both make pressing - if sometimes fictitious - claims to the capture of lost moments.

Self service
I hadn't used a plain old pencil for a long time - one always forgets how delicious it is to use this simplest and most rudimentary of marking tools!

Back home and South Africa, 25 December 2010
Back home after a long time away, and flailing in stuff that needs to be done, so the scanning of my sketchbook will be slow. These lemons from an exercise with my brother upon my arrival: I think his may have been his first drawing ever.

Luscious fruit
Still working from photographs of Israel. I think I had such a long period in England, watching the seasons change in my garden, the things of everyday life – the dog, friends coming and going, hospitals and vets – that I am now still drinking in and absorbing the chance to see different light, different streets, architecture, people. There is the added fascination of Israel being the country where I was born and spent the first eight years of my life, so everything is at once strange and filled with a complete familiarity. This one is from the many photos (and drawings) of Shuk HaCarmel in Tel Aviv.

Cherries
Very busy and unusually sociable weekend and more visitors through next week. R. brought huge, firm, delicious cherries.

I scanned in the bookmark by mistake, but it seemed to echo the stems of the roses - new climbers (Generous Gardener) I've just planted and already blooming. And it covers up the fact that I didn't get C's likeness. Today the weather was just so glorious. Here are some photos too:
