regardless of today’s outcome, it is morally indefensible to have a court ruling on something that affects a population, using evidence and findings that did not consult a single member of that population.

My Bell Rock print looking rather lovely in this birch frame spyglassillustration.com/product/bell...

Bookshops doing their bit 👏

Sharing this in case it helps someone: Going gluten-free about two months ago ended my chronic fatigue, brain fog and even alleviated my ADHD symptoms. Totally didn’t expect that (I initially tried it to deal with IBS-like symptoms). Completely life-changing. I still can’t get over it.

These guys are now available as A4 prints in my shop spyglassillustration.com/shop/

Lighthouse keeper.

Separate the art from the artist something something… Fine. But in this case, adding up the artist, BBC’s own history of covering up paedophiles, the statue itself and now this horrendous box - not a good look, BBC. Not a good look.

Nautical dreams. #art #illustration

What a beauty!

Love a fox. This one is from my Literary Animals series. #art #illustration

Hope it was worth it to stop a few of us from peeing.

Hello there! 👋 My name is Anna F. Walker, and I am a digital artist and illustrator. I live and work in Edinburgh, where I am also a co-owner of McNaughtan’s Bookshop with my husband Derek, which specialises in rare, antiquarian and second-hand books @mcnaughtans.co.uk

What stage capitalism is this?

All set up at the beautiful St Giles Cathedral and ready to go.

My new business cards have arrived today. And I think things are official between me and @bsky.app now that my BlueSky handle has replaced the Instagram handle.

Tomorrow! I’ll be there selling my wares. My first art fair. Excited and nervous as hell…😭

Why isn’t this story leading every news bulletin? What is it going to take before politicians take a stand? And many other futile questions

Lovely blossoms.

Woot woot! Edinburgh Book Fair opens today at 12pm. Scotland’s biggest celebration of rare, antiquarian and collectable books rarebooksedinburgh.com/book-fair/

Sickening.

My first lighthouse. An endlessly fascinating subject for me. spyglassillustration.com/product/ligh...

One of my first drawings I felt confident enough about to turn into a print. Available in different sizes spyglassillustration.com/product/fish... #art

Eigg has 16 kids, but no play area to enjoy or share with our many visiting children. We'd like to build one next to our shop and tearoom, so while our 99 adults do adult stuff, kids can have fun. Please help if you can. Thanks crowdfunder.co.uk/p/isle-of-ei...

Finally feeling the spring today.

LS Lowry (1887-1976 ). ‘The Barge’

An old favourite.

Oof, the Severance S2 finale definitely delivers. And no spoilers, but the choice of song for the final scene is perfection 👌

Finally got my hands on this. Super excited to read it.
