One more spin round the Sun

Should all writers climb into the 'arc'?

Small acts of making

Sinking Light

Never again this sun, this world

Paint your grey bottles

An ordinary rain

Cloud, Moon, Wave

The gift of darkness

Three Ways of Looking at the Forth

Time is a thickening mist, an intricate web

Where the light gives way

On keeping faith

Cloudmakers and tiny rain gods

Sailing into the fog

Art is an act of veneration and thanksgiving

Silence is ecological

In search of a word for edgelessness

Welcome to my studio in Orkney

The light on the sea is good medicine

Getting into the weeds with Anna Chapman Parker

a leaf is life is water is life

A high blue day, a tiny wildflower

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take

This is not a competition

Finding buoyancy in rough seas

Gift Songs

Catching our breath

Short but sweet

On clouds and conversations

Art does not 'speak for itself'

Think small. Go deep.

Two invitations and something about a boat

We are all clouds

Flow and fall like water

The Life Raft

Spinning in the sunlight

The brimming moment

In the unlettered light

Take your own sweet time

'A wave is a creation event, chaos, sheer energy.'

Morning light; a cloud seen from inside; a skylark

An invisible ocean flows through us

The sound of the sea breathing

On mistakes and masterpieces

No more heroes

The cringe stage

A gentle invitation
