Let’s see how many more monarchists I can divest myself of:
The UK monarchy costs UK taxpayers £202,400,000 per year - that’s the equivalent of 9560 nurses per year, 8200 police officers per year, or all the...

This country is inhumane.
Day 3 of a 4-day weekend
Not so much artwork today - taking the afternoon off to go and see the Avengers film for mindless distraction and amusement.

Ooh, I’ve suddenly remembered how to paint.
This is a good thing since I am in the middle of a painting that was rapidly approaching being flung away in despair at lost skills.
