My travels around the UK by car for three weeks with my son. June/July 2019 England.

 

Day Eleven .. Visiting the Liverpool Docklands before making our way to Blackpool for the night.

 

Tate Liverpool is an art gallery and museum in Liverpool, Merseyside, England, and part of Tate, along with Tate St Ives, Cornwall, Tate Britain, London, and Tate Modern, London. The museum was an initiative of the Merseyside Development Corporation.

 

Housed in a converted warehouse within the Albert Dock on Liverpool's waterfront, the gallery was opened on 24 May 1988 by HRH Prince Charles, an event covered by BBC Two television. The original conversion was done by James Stirling but the building was given a major refurbishment in 1998 to create additional gallery space.

 

Bringing together artworks from all over the world, Tate Liverpool prides itself on staging an ever-evolving programme of unique and incredible collections. With past artists featured including Gustav Klimt, Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol and Claude Monet, we’re always looking forward to what the next Tate Liverpool season will bring to our doorstep.

Southwest & Northwest USA 1986

My travels around the UK by car for three weeks with my son. June/July 2019 Scotland.

 

Day fifteen .. In the Northwest Highlands on our journey to Helmsdale where we are staying the night.

 

The Northwest Highlands are located in the northern third of Scotland that is separated from the Grampian Mountains by the Great Glen (Glen More). The region comprises Wester Ross, Assynt, Sutherland and part of Caithness.

 

The geology of the Highlands is complex. Along the western coastal margin it is characterised by Lewisian gneiss, the oldest rock in Scotland. Liathach, Beinn Alligin, Suilven, Cùl Mòr, Cùl Beag, and Quinag are just some of the impressive rock islands of the significantly younger rich brown-coloured Torridonian sandstone which rests on the gneiss. Some of the peaks, such as Beinn Eighe and Canisp, are topped with later light grey or white Cambrian quartzite. Cambro-Ordovician limestone is also to be found in a narrow outcrop between Durness and Skye. The larger part of the region is formed from rocks of the Moine succession much of which is metamorphosed sandstones (psammites) and schist. These have over-ridden the gneiss and the Cambrian and Ordovician rocks of the northwest margin along the Moine Thrust Belt.

 

The region has steep, glacier-carved mountains, glens and interspersed plains. Elevations of around 750 metres (2500 ft) or over are common, as are mountains exceeding 3000 feet or 914 m (Munros).

 

The Northwest Highlands are typically not quite as cold as the Cairngorms. Considering its terrain and its latitude of about 57 to 58 degrees North, the area is surprisingly warm: this is due to the mild influence of the Gulf Stream. The aurora borealis is sometimes visible on winter nights, especially at the climax of the 11-year cycle. Bordering the region to the north east is the lowland area of Caithness. There are relatively few roads, and many are single lane (with passing places). The region has a very low population density. Significant settlements are Kyle of Lochalsh, Mallaig, Dingwall, Dornoch, and Ullapool.

In history I started my creative path drawing comics. I had an array of characters with different super powers like morphing, controlling light, minds, flying, super strength, etc. The first female character I made was a girl who could teleport to any location possible. This is that girl. This is now 20 years later. Proud to be a member of #TheCreatorClass community. 🙏🌊 Give a look, give a like, create. @thecreatorclass #JOINTHECLASS

November Travels

I wrote a blog about my time away this November through Europe with Crystal Fighters. I haven't wrote anything in quite a long time (forgive a rather relaxed writing style) but I feel it is helpful to my future memories and a number of people seemed genuinely interested.

 

You can also see a gallery of images of the band from the tour there as well, so have a look!

“There are thousands of crutches like this, but this is uniquely mine. I decorate it with badges I’ve collected from the places I’ve travelled to. Each badge holds a memory. The crutch helps me to get about, so it fits.”

OK, so we are collaborating on a large art piece and we were trying to find the perfect pieces of driftwood to put into it... in case anyone is wondering what is going on here.

I know you can't tell by looking but this was taken at a nude beach named Orient Beach. It is hard to beat Siesta Key back home but this was close.

A fun little fact for you guys is that David actually photographed me for the first time at the Melbourne Camera Club in 2002 - just over 22 years ago now. We couldn't have known then that we'd continue to work together for what has become literally decades later but Dave tells me I'm one of the only people he has shot repeatedly for 20+ years. I'll find a photo from our shoot back then but in the meantime, enjoy this new one from a few weeks' ago :)
