Are you feeling a bit burnt out at the moment ?
The Alchemy Garden in SW France is a wonderful place to unwind and recharge with all the gifts that nature brings.
Soak up the spring sunshine to the sound of the Cuckoo or the nightingale that sings through the night as we head towards summer.
Reconnect with the magic you once felt as a child surrounded by butterflies and nature spirits.

' White village with cows '

Mixed media on board Painting by Rana J Rodger © www.ranapix.co.uk.
Here are a  painting I created while living in the foothills of the Alpujarran mountain range in Andalucia S Spain.
The landscape is incredible with acres of olive groves, orange trees, white villages gracing the hills in endless interesting shapes and forms.
The air is hot and dry and dusty...from the distance you can hear dogs barking in a village miles away...up above a large bird hovers and swoops.
In the far distance I can see the sea that will take me to Africa.
