Great to be back @victoriabaths to see @nancollantine @suzannebethell and others in exhibition in Superintendents Flat. Used the time to have nostalgic moments in my favourite bits of the building.

Autumn Equinox
Work in Progress on the summer version. Strange to call it Autumn Equinox then? Still enjoying it’s fragility even though it’s now firmly glued to the support.

Autumn Equinox
Looks like a good time to rescue my 400gm paper from a secret location. It’s been outside in all weather for three months. This will be the summer recorded on site. So next paper will be about the Autumn and will stay until December when it will be replaced by the Winter paper. It’s interesting to see how the birds, mammals, insects and other wildlife have interacted. They will be part of my exhibition coming up in October @globearts Land Marks.

Two butterflies were on this hydrangea today. One flew away before I got my phone out.
It made me feel happy and lucky to be in this September sun. It’s the Equinox tomorrow. 😎😀🤔
Pleased to be included in this exhibition @ryedalefolkmuseum about the northern landscape during lockdown
It’s on from tomorrow 18 September-14 November.
Really interesting visit. Got to see @carolemccourtart work today @killhopemuseum She’s artist in residence at this fascinating lead mining museum.

Knab End
Hidden rural quarry burnt at least five times in 2018 and often subject to arson. I found explosives in the rubbish. Making fires is a basic human trait and seems to take place in these hidden spaces. Meanwhile the quarry is just about recovering and the heather is promising this year. That will show in this series of paintings.

More Moregate Mooches
Today discovered the chain of quarries about 100 metres from my house. It’s next to Uppermill, the commercial centre of Saddleworth. The outcrops are in a series on the western side of the valley. I can remember the sound of blasting in the 1980s. If any of you have similar memories or know of someone who worked quarries in the area please contact me. I’m researching for a project Land Marks.

Moorgate Quarry Mooch
Exploring the big quarry above Uppermill today. It was closed in 1995 and in 1999 Oldham Council took ownership and restoration has created a healthy eco system. Nature has rewilded a once barren landscape. There is a wonderful array of wildlife insects, birds, heather and other flowers. You may even see foxes or deer. It’s going to be added to the list for my upcoming exhibitions. More information later.

Above the Quarry
Do you feel the anticipation growing that the new normal might be okay? Bank holiday over and three exhibitions in the pipeline so back planning and painting. This one is now resolved with addition of lichen aka #yellowochre
