            The beauty of the Lake District, a national park, situated to the west of England has inspired numerous artists and writers including me. Perhaps the most famous creatives being the writer William Wordsworth and the children’s book illustrator and author Beatrix Potter and the artist John Ruskin.

            The Japanese word Sakura means cherry blossom. A special time of the year in Spring both in Japan and here when Cherry trees burst forth with flowers.
