Flickr account of Martin Fowler a Scottish
artist currently living in Cumbria. Work goes from
quiet and finely observed portraits of life in Perth
Prison where he taught painting for a while; to busy
socially engaged narrative paintings that stylistically
can include both Hogarth and Bellany in their
backlight, deconstructing Scotland and its icons. An
acid take not designed for staid gallery life or the
Creative Scotland no-controversy-please hearties.

Poetry publisher under poet Nicholas Johnson,
perhaps the last remaining UK small publisher of
fullsize poetry books who does not issue the books as
Print on Demand digital, but has them printed and
published to quantity in careful design. The publisher
of Tom Leonard's last four books, Nicholas consulted
Tom Leonard on all aspects of production throughout,
Tom with wife Sonya designing the front covers on the
sewn bindings. The finished product of the last two
books, outside the narrative and Definite Articles, has
had WordPower in Scotland then weigh in with
contributory funding to have the books finally
published under joint publisher imprint. The full list
of Etruscan's publications here shows their particular
bent towards progressive poetry including Americans
like Rakosi and Dorn when in their last years.

A website that presents the turning mapped globe
filling as it turns with sundry yellow dots indicating
the location of live radio stations which can be
listened to with a click. Great way to browse radio
worldwide picking up a clear picture of each country's
location and area in the process.
