I am just back from a week off, and straight into planning and researching the creative family learning project that I’m running with The Salisbury Museum.

I’ve mentioned before that we’ll be exploring the Stonehenge Landscape using visual art, and we’re going to start with a focus on the marks in the landscape, using mark-making in its different forms.

This week I have been rekindling my interest in the relationship of the ancient monument and its wider complex of earthworks such as Woodhenge and the Durrington henge, local natural features such as the River Avon, and the local towns and military settlements - exploring the area through maps, reading and walking - linking it all up and getting thoughts and ideas out onto paper.

The project kicks off in Mid September, so there’ll be lots more on here as things develop and progress….
