Snow on Snow

There are many new students in Cambridge who have never seen snow , they come from countries where the climate is hot.I have seen excited students frantically taking photos very late at night of falling snow .
I hope we get some good falls of snow this winter so that I can  take photos and paint snowy pictures.

The excitement of Christmas is never far away from now on.I have painted this picture in the style of Lowry . Memories of black wellies and scratchy wool  balaclavas knitted by Gran ,compulsory garments for wearing in the snow.

Leeds Musician

Whenever I visit Leeds there is a busker playing in City Square trying to raise a bit of money first thing in the morning as commuters rush to work.He plays every week day even in the pouring rain.
