Autumn For All...
Posted by Johnny Lord on
The Autumn is coming! The nights are drawing in now and as we lose the daylight and the temperature drops, here's what I'll be up to! Yorkshire Sculpture Park here I come! As the days shorten through October and November, here in Yorkshire, I try to make the most of the precious day light and get outside.

Travel On My Mind ...
Posted by Johnny Lord on
Having settled back at home after our summer of day trips and travels, I find that I have travel on my mind again. Specifically a trip to Japan. Japan, it’s art, culture, place and people have always fascinated me and I’d love to visit. But, I live on the other side of the world, in Yorkshire, so it’ll need a lot of saving up to get there.

Posted by Johnny Lord on
So the football season is well and truly over and life's other distractions can take over for a few short weeks. A moment to draw breath and look about us before the next season, with all it's excitement arrives! So, I was thinking about things other than football and here are some of highlights, in no particular order! Posca pens - these are great art pens - they're my favourite art thing - I know I said not thinking about football or art, but that's not really possible. Waterslides & roller coasters - they please my inner-child. Joe Strummer's...
