Atalaya ‘Castle’, SC
January 14, 2012
Jan 14 I just received an opportunity to do an initial measured drawings of Atalaya ‘Castle’ for the South Carolina State Parks over the next two months. By camping here in Huntington Beach, the close proximity will be very conducive to the study as well as being located across the road from Brookgreen Gardens where [...]

Idesia Polycarpa – Igiri!

December 27, 2011
Welcome to new beginnings in a journey that started in 1991, when I left the UK and a career as an architect and have been painting full-time ever since. Having recently left the mountains of North Carolina, after living there for ten years, I am currently camping on the coast of South Carolina, where it [...]
