I'm very pleased to announce that it is now possible to search my website for information about:
Use the NEW customised Google Search engine which you can find at the bottom of the Home Page to search my website. (I may also include it on other pages where I think people will use search a lot). It generates search results ONLY from content on my website. So, for example, you can look for a specific artist listed on the website in the artists past and present e.g. ' Margaret Mee '. This will - as you can see in the example below - generate results from the art history section, the artists by country section, the education section and the blog! Or you can look for tips and techniques related to botanical art e.g. how to paint leaves (see below) How to Search Normal practices relating to a search enquiry apply.
However the second search (see below) was more specific and asked for results for 'how to "paint leaves" ' This only generated results which included the specific term "paint leaves" and left out those where the term used on the page might have been "painting leaves". As I'm using the Google Search engine, some of the searches will come up with Google ads (shown in a pink box). However I think that's a small price to pay for being able to access a very powerful search engine! Plus I might get the odd penny once in a while as a result and this will help offset the cost of maintaining this website. I hope you don't mind. My general practice when using search to find information (and this entire website is built on 'search'!) is to start wide and then become more precise once I see what the first search throws up. You can also reorder your search results by relevance or date - just use the options box top right of the results screen. I hope you find this NEW search facility useful and consider it a valuable addition to my website. I know I do! If you want to add a customised Google search engine to your website this is the page which tells you how to add search to your site

The search is a lovely feature. If you order your results by date (instead of accepting the default relevance), the date of posting appears on each entry.
