Learn how not to quit. February 23, 2015. All about the art. Cut You, in progress. I started setting up this still life weeks ago and it has gone through dozens of renditions.

News From Nowhere: Stourhead for Man and Beast
http://ladymuckdigs.blogspot.com/2013/11/stourhead-for-man-and-beast.html
Stourhead for Man and Beast. There is a moment on the Stourhead estate, post-visitor centre, pre-ticket kiosk, when you find yourself walking along a lower road, steep bank either side, bridge overhead. On your right are some pretty little houses and on the left an august inn. It's a picturesque setting. As with so many National Trust properties a suspension of disbelief takes place, at around this moment. Is this place for real? Richard Wheeler, who spoke at the Garden Museum. Keeping people out became ...

News From Nowhere: April 2014
http://ladymuckdigs.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
The Garden Museum in London was host to a 'fashion panel' the other night which was impossible to resist: Amanda Harlech (muse); Sam McKnight (legendary hairdresser) and Tim Walker (fantastical photographer). There was also an erudite professor of fashion from Central St Martins called Alistair O'Neill. There's something about the decaying of flowers that I find most interesting of all.". Fawn-like Tim Walker started off by showing us a photograph that had been formative for him, from the book Appearances.

News From Nowhere: On Living —With Taste
http://ladymuckdigs.blogspot.com/2014/02/on-living-with-taste.html
On Living —With Taste. The thing about good designers is: they are just trying to make sense of space. There is a logic. Touring around the garden of an interior designer is an exercise in strict visual hierarchy. When the drawing room is configured, it is inconceivable that the view just outside should not be given lengthy consideration as well. This is certainly the case at The Grove, the garden designed by the late David Hicks, society decorator and taste polemicist. Is it the title? On visiting The G...

The Last Word on Slugs and Snails. Ever. Questions from the audience inevitably focused on Monty and had nothing to do with the guest whom he was interviewing. What do you think of the Chelsea judging row? What row. Would you like to know about my vegetable company? No I would not. What about slugs, Monty? I've never been anywhere without someone asking me about slugs," said Monty, not without humour. But the question did not go away. What about Lucy, what does she do about slugs, he asked? In Hastings, ...
