Yesterday we had to miss the local markets, except for the half hour at the very end, when we could pop out for some Thai spring rolls. It rained and rained and all there was left to do is think of the fun things that happened before and eat peanut butter sandwiches. My mouse has gotten into some of this peanut butter and now it’s extremely hard to browse, sigh.  This is one of the recent past memories: lovely Yulia has visited recently, whom we made fall in love withe East End and she took back to Washington one of my Natashas.

Seriously  the best coffee in whole London.

In between all this travel and festivities, I forgot to mention that my little picture By the Well will be exhibited at the Mall galleries in November as part of the ING Discerning Eye competition show.

Been to the BP Portrait Award show at the National Portrait Gallery today. The quality of work on show is sticking. Making a Mark particularly well described my favoarite item in the show - Gareth Reid’s illustarted trip to small Finnish willage. Also explored today Somerset House courtyard turned into a the largest living room for the weekend as part of London architecture festival.

26×18 cm, oil on canvas textured paper, 2008. These two we spotted at the Hackney City farm nearby our house. The place is unreal - a patch of rural in the middle of the busiest city. This helps us reconnect with our Lutsk roots, xo.
