EDIT: I'd like to introduce to everyone my partner, David, who has recently set up on DA
tree-gypsy.deviantart.com/ - he does wood carving, and it is he who is teaching me how to carve! His work is beautiful but you know how hard it is to reach people when you start up here, especially in the artisan crafts sector, so any support would be really appreciated. Thank you everyone!
Hello. I've been away for a while, working on an uninhabited Island, living in a lighthouse with my partner. We were the only people there and it was as brilliant as it sounds. It was work for the RSPB on a tern colony off the coast of Wales, UK.
The terns are a total joy, even when they are telling you off and pooing on you, and all the other animals there were brilliant. It is great to live with them as they are accustomed to our presence and are not disturbed by us as we are the only people there and so live alongside us quite contently. The terns were nesting right outside our windows and doors, and their chicks are just adorable. The puffins and seals were a particular favourite of mine, there is nothing better than swimming with seals in the evening light.
I will soon be inundating my gallery with various photos from the Island, I hope some of them warrant a look.
Thank you to anyone who favved or commented while I was away
Genevieve
