“I bustled around, gathering easel and water-colours... George was up on the glossy, clipped-out mare... I remember his pose, his right hand resting on the rump of the mare as he turned, looking back, pretending to be a whipper-in calling to tail hounds.” https://t.co/jBqHSLTM47

I grew to like Shrimp. My memories of him are touched with regret, thinking how much I could have done for him. But I console myself ... that my last gesture ... was to present him with the dun-coloured horse and blue caravan

The Haunted Room Painted at a Farmhouse on Exmoor, 1952, Alfred Munnings. Violet Munnings, who #diedonthisday in 1971, was definitely a believer and wrote about ghostly encounters in her notebooks and letters to Munnings. She claimed Castle House, now the museum, was haunted too!

The Problem Picture - Munnings explained "During the war I visited Glenthorne, the home of Sir William Halliday. As soon as I saw the four-poster bed I started to paint. Afterwards a female cousin of the late Lord Mildmay consented to pose". #halloween

trembling
poplar leaves
the side effects
of another autumn
yet to kick in
aspen leaves
my hands tremble
in the wind
not seeing you grow up bluebell
