Evening Glow

Well, its's been a while since I picked up my brushes so I was a bit nervous when I set up today, but this painting does have a lovely warm autumnal feel about it with it's soft golden glow...hence the name: Evening Glow!
Painting strung and ready to hang.

New challenges!

I have not been painting for a while as I am eagerly awaiting my new 'studio' which comes in the form of an 8x6 garden shed!! I am hoping to 'personalise' this little place and make it my own...you know; pots round the door and all the little home comforts of a chair and easel!! As soon as 'Bev's Place' is up and running I hope to spend considerable time there working on new paintings and sketches....so once again watch this space!

New Home - New Paintings!!

My sister, Deb, and her family have recently moved to a new home. They are keen fans of my artwork and have always given me encouragement with my painting.

I am honoured they wanted to 're-home' 8 of my paintings in their new home! - I know they will not go unnoticed there.

Some of the paintings have not been displayed on my 'blogger' previously due to lack of time!

Thanks Deb, Tim, Curt and Em for re-homing these paintings and I wish you all every happiness in your new home.

Storms Approaching!

This painting is a firm favourite of my sister Sandra (who has previously produced some lovely watercolours herself, one is proudly displayed in my home) and her husband who last year upped sticks and moved to a new home.

This painting is now re-homed in their dining room-thanks to them for their encouragement.....

And Sandra...get those brushes out and start painting again, your garden is truly your inspiration!

Tropical Tides!

Tropical Tide was a bit of an experiment trying to create depth in water, as you can see the water on the horizon has captured the turbulence of the sea! The shore, palms and land need some extra work, however I thought this would be a fun painting to include on the site; my son loves this one and has it displayed in his room!

Fantasy Rainbow Walk

Fantasy Rainbow Walk was just a crazy colourful moment of painting using up some leftover colours on my palette! My niece Emily likes this one and now has it hanging in her bedroom! "Walk down the path to rainbow's end while dreaming of your fantasy"!
NB: I was amazed to see trees resembling these 'made up fantasy images' in Majorca!!!!

Beach Cove

Beach Cove: A large oil painting now framed and hanging in my sister's home!

Montain Ridge Lake 3

Mountain Ridge Lake has been a popular painting hence this 3rd version - there is a 4th also! This is a rather more 'panoramic' view as this original hand painted version is on a deep edged boxed canvas over a wide narrow canvas size: 60 x 25cms. No frame is required as this deep edged style of canvas should be hung directly to the wall.

The 1st Mountain Ridge Lake can be seen in the '2006' section of this blog. A firm favourite which is boldly displayed in my son's home!

NB: Although there are 4, each painting is a slight variation/size of the original and no 2 paintings are the same!

A tranquil place where fishermen can hide away as they relax by the lake! Cozy evenings and tranquil mornings await.......a secret place where fishermen dream of catching 'the big one'!

I am pleased to say my father, an avid fisherman, has given this painting a new home.....I expect he longs to fish there each time he looks at it!! Thanks Dad - keep on fishing!
