The footpath heading south from Corporal Lane, Queensbury, BD13.
Shibden was formerly spelt Schepedene – the sheep vale.
It’s high up and my brother lives nearby. We joke about how it’s always 10° colder there than in Leeds – even though he’s only 20 miles away…

I feel the warmth of those sunny rays, whether uphill or down.

  Hi Claudia, hope all is well with you – and that you have some sunny rays over there to warm you.

    Thank you, we are hanging in here. We have sunny days but also a lot of snow on the ground right now – but..it’s February and that is what February does.!

Fantastic again Jo! you make it look so effortless. I love the spontaneity of your paintings – and the way the colours bleed into one another sometimes. you somehow just manage to capture the moment over and over…inspired!
