Francis Cadell first visited the island of Iona off the west coast of Scotland in 1912 and returned every year afterwards, frequently in the company of Samuel Peploe. He felt the light was of the same quality as that in the south of France. This is from 1928.

Today I found my first seabean. This seed has travelled a long way to reach #Shetland. Starting it's journey in a tropical forest, travelling with ocean currents and washing up in our first autumn storms. A little piece of luck and joy as daylight fades and winter approaches. – at Sandwick, Scotland

Something warm and moonbeamy for you this afternoon: a ladybird asleep in a yellow rattle cup in the meadow. How lovely is that?

Louis Armstrong was once asked what jazz is. “If you have to ask,” he answered, “you’ll never know.” If you have to ask why the process of human creation is important (and spiritually fulfilling) in a world of GenAI and computerized creation, you'll never know, at least until you open your heart to the possibility that we’re here on this earth to do something other than make money and die.

Found our first Violet Sea Snail of the year washed ashore on Vatersay today following a moderate arrival of By-The-Wind Sailors over the past week.

Best week of the year, miles from anywhere next to a beautiful loch in the woods with a lovely bunch of people.
I got 18 people to cast their own iron age Boar using charcoal bellows and ancient skills.
Working with people is the wonderful therapy Pictavia leather Caledonian camp
