Here in the UK we are having challenging time dealing with constant rain and stormy weather.  Having just had a day of rain that was the equivalent of the amount of rain for  a normal month things do not like they will return to normal very soon.   Thousands of people are without power and many having to abandon homes and farms where flood water has taken hold across great swathes of land.  I am staying firmly holed up in my attic studio watching the rain lash down across the hillside and listening to the roof creaking in the wind.  I am trying a larger painting and the drawing is under way.

Meanwhile amidst the weather and the winter animals which are on dry land continue to hibernate along with us hoping that Spring will arrive very soon.
