Perranporth Beach

 
This is the last piece I have done for my Drawing Course "Buildings in the Landscape".  I have now signed up for the "Seascapes" Course, which looks very challenging.  These courses have been a godsend for me, now that I can't get out much.

Portreath Art Exhibition


This is my stand at the Art Exhibition.  No pictures sold as yet!

New Watercolour Canvas

These two pictures are painted on commercially prepared canvas and then sprayed with a fixative.  They do not need to be put behind glass and so can be hung directly on to a wall.

Man-an-Tol

This was associated with fertility.  Women who wanted babies and farmers who wanted a good harvest would climb through the hole.
 
 
Lanyon Quoit

This was a burial chamber.

Stokesby, Norfolk Broads.


This is painted from one of the photographs I took while on holiday with the family in 2008!

Glenfeadon Castle, Portreath.


This is for the Exhibition too.  I did it as part of my drawing course.

Loe Pool


I think this would make a nice pair with the Helford River for our Art Exhibition.

Helford River


Only about eight weeks to go until our Annual Art Exhibition!  This will be one of my exhibits.  I took this photo from Cornwall Cam and I hope I have caught its air of tranquillity.

Cascade of Cans


I saw this photo on Cornwall Cam and just had to paint it!

Mother Love


These seals were seen in Mutton Cove, Godrevy.

Certificate!


I received this fun certificate after completing the Beginners Course.  I have now started on the Advanced Course and am awaiting the return of my first lot of homework.

Lesson Seven - Gone for Coffee!

Draw from memory or imagination.

Lesson Six

No pencil to be used!  A watersoluble pen was used for this lesson.

Lesson Five

Looking at little things and drawing them larger than life.

Lesson Four - Self Portrait

This is nothing like me but my tutor doesn't know that!
