Gisele Edwards

gisele5

Here Gisele is in rehearsal for a project with Jos Houben - a founder member of Complicité - around the subject of strings and ropes. We (Gisele, three cellists, four cellos and percussionist) will produce a taster evening in Paris at the end of April in the hope that we can get funding to create a show.

First blossom and first draft.

blossom

Two weeks later than last year, Provence is in bloom. If you look behind the blossom you can still see the last (?) of the snow on the mountain.

violets

The air smells of violets. I have a tan already as I have been sitting out on the terrace in twenty degrees, cuddling an ill cat, working my way through a walnut tart inspired by a walnut painting and reading through my first draft. It's off to my first reader tomorrow.

blossom

Spring is here. Babu is playing with blossom, Julian is painting blossom and I am planting Felicité, Cecile, Katherina and a Sceptr'd Isle, thanks to Roger's Roses.
