Lapwing

This beautiful bird is still thriving although we don't see as many as we used to in Cornwall.

Millie

I started this cat four years ago when I first tried pastels but gave up because it was such a messy medium! Now I'm having another go and finished the cat which I'm quite pleased with, I think it might be one for the exhibition.

Firecrest

I can't believe it is so long since I posted a painting. I just lost the 'knack' with watercolour. I tried a couple of oils but that hurt my shoulder too much. Then I saw a pastel painting video on television and was inspired to unearth my pastels which I hadn't used for about four years. The first one I did was this firecrest and that has encouraged me to do some more.

Go Baby!

This is the last of my golfing series.

Fore!

This is the next painting in my golfing series. Life has been a bit hectic lately as those of you who follow Sally-Ann's blog will know.

The Art Exhibition was very successful as we sold 62 paintings. I only sold one but I'm happy with that. It was 'Fishy Goings On', the first one on my blog.

Birdie Putt

After watching the Scottish Open from Loch Lomond I've started a series of paintings with a golfing theme.

The Fairway

My last painting 'Gone Fishing' was the result of thinking about song titles. This one was to be entitled 'Straight Down the Middle' but that was too long to fit on the label for the Exhibition so it is called 'The Fairway'. I am not too happy with it but am working on some more on the golfing theme.
