It has been sunny in Brighton so, it has been great to see people out and about exposing their limbs in T-shirts and shorts and summery frocks. Relieved no doubt, not to be wearing their winter clothes. But we have also had some dramatic sea mists recently on the seafront. One afternoon, the pier looked like it was something out of the Arabian Nights, magically floating in the air emerging out of a cloud.

Some kids are funny. They see me sitting on my stool painting and they sprint past me apologising ‘Sorry for getting in the way of your picture!’ As they seem to think that what I am doing is like taking a photograph, how sweet :-)
