I haven’t posted in a while as I’ve been so busy writing and travelling. This was my second time in Uzbekistan and it was even more wonderful than I remembered. We stayed in Tashkent, Bukhara and Samarkand, saw mosques, madrasahs and minarets, watched potters and paper-makers at work, took a night train, picked cotton, went to a wedding, ate huge amounts of delicious food and drank endless cups of green tea. I’ll post some Uzbekistan inspired sketches and paintings soon but in the meantime here are a few photos from the trip.
