4th September 2013 – morning mist
It hangs like snow which cannot fall. In drifts, it floats around the houses, obscures the hills behind. The sun attempts to shine, but its smoky tendrils hold her fast.
27th March 2013 – snowflakes

19th January – family
The woman carries a bright red plastic sledge, the ridges on its base white with snow. From behind her skips a little girl, dressed head to toe in pink. She stops dead and turns towards her mother, then falls straight … Continue reading
18th January 2013 – Buddha
A small stone Buddha sits cross-legged on a green plastic bench. A fur coat of snow covers him and a cossack-style snow-hat finishes off the outfit with a flourish. Through it all, undeterred, he calmly searches for Nirvana.
