Some pics of the Glasgow Science Centre where I did a portrait shoot last week…

Work trip to Amsterdam… lovely day for a bike ride….

I’m a very very proud new Auntie…. my beautiful sister had an equally beautiful baby girl…

A little flying work visit to Hastings… really liked the tall fishermans huts in lovely dark weathered wood…

soft pretty colours in vilnius, lithuania…

I had 24 hours in Lithuania at the start of this week doing a portrait shoot… it was so pretty! They had a big snowfall so everything was white……

I really wanted to go have a look at this building whilst in Paris, its pretty amazing as well as having a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower…

Whils in Paris i came across the work of a painter I didn’t know of before: Marie Laurencin…. she was a part of Picasso’s circle, and a lover of the poet Appolinaire. She was associated with the cubists but retained her own extremely feminine style. She also worked alongside Diaghilev designing stage sets for the Ballets Russe.I liked her paintings very much, the pastel colours were beautiful, and I particularly loved the 3rd one shown, a portrait of Coco Chanel.

Lots of very cultural activities in Paris due to the freezing cold and the benefits of beautifully heated galleries… here are some wonderful colourful bits from the Pompidou…
