' My Dark Side' Hurst Grange, Preston - photo by Vincent Wadsworth   'Please consider these photos I have had taken of me.
I think they bring out my wind blown maturity and my seductive mysterious side.

I may be old, but I can still offer shelter, I have all my own roots and there’s nothing rotten at my core.
Indeed my sap still rises! I await your warm breeze to rock my leaves and limbs.

Yours, complex and dusky.' - Hurst Grange, Preston, Lancs.

Ageless - drawing by Blaze Cyan

Blaze Cyan

The inspiration for my work comes from ancient twisted trees, I love working with them because of their incredible age, diversity and gnarled beauty. No two will ever be alike, and each one is unique, never to be repeated, silent witnesses to hundreds of years of history and upheaval, adapting always to the changing world and outliving human experience.
