A fellow artist recommended this book, looks interesting so am going to look out for it.
Studio day and some work done, another fellow artist met for quick drink on the way home, when it began snowing. 
Woke up to snow on all the gardens except mine - what is that about?!
Also, so windy, a bush has almost fallen over. it has all it's leaves on so they must be adding to wind stress. a big stake needed.
