Another imaginary landscape of houses in the countryside. A yellow rainbow under a purple sky seems unlikely but most things I paint are unlikely. Mixed media on paper 10×8 inches (25×20 cm).
The big house

We live in the blue house
Well, actually, we never lived in a blue house. But my neighbour has recently painted his fences and BBQ shelter in this shade of blue – and it looks very nice. So maybe a repainting job on my side of the fence is needed… Though it is easier to see and admire on the next door property and save the effort!
Image measures approx. 8 x 10 inches (20×25 cm).
Kids’ Art Week!
Thank you, Carla, for another free Kids’ Art Week! (Last year’s lessons are still available here.)
I’m posting my efforts here this time:
Go, Picasso dog!
Yes, it does!
But who cares. If you like it, wear it.
River by my door
Sadly I started this 10×8 inch picture on too many varieties of oriental tissue so it was impossible to flatten it out – hence the wrinkles that persist! Otherwise I was pleased with it!
Boulder folk
Another from my series about the Moeraki boulders. Silly but colourful! The image is 8×10 inches (25.5×20 cm), painted in various acrylic media on paper.
Boulder bash

One of a series of paintings referring to the amazing Moeraki Boulders in New Zealand. The image is 10×8 inches (25.5×20 cm) painted on paper with a variety of acrylic products.
Sweet sugar dumpling
One of a recent series of figures outlined with heavy black. I love the way the bright colours look like traditional stained glass. I remember dancing to this song way back… Didn’t want to offend with the real title!

A vague feeling
In a blue mist, she wanders – wondering just how to make the posts come up the right size on Facebook…

Lion tamer
Here she is. The lady lion tamer. No lion would dare to mess with her.

By the Waters of Babylon
A colour piece suggesting a landscape with river and pools… A very large bird appeared on its own!
Image is mixed media 8×10 inches (20×20.5 cm).
I’m too old for all this malarkey
I feel for this lady! Mixed media on paper, image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm). Have a giggle!
IX-A He loves me
A colour piece chosen for the Summer Exhibition at Redleaf Gallery, Tunbridge Wells from 13th June – check the gallery site for times of opening. Image size 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm).
Faces of me!
Encouraged to find colour palettes and do self-portraits for my week’s lesson on Year of the Spark, I have done three faces. Here they are with the colour selections.
Blue lady
A portrait that grew from eyes that ‘appeared’ in a kind of swirling paint mix. Image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm), mixed media on paper. Reproductions for sale in my print on demand shop.
Wild dance
You have to look hard to see if there really are dancers in there or they are implied by the pattern!
Image approx. 5.75 inches square (14.5 cm sq),
Phyz
A collage of decorated oriental papers with the barest minimum of line-work to show the face. Image size 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm approx). The original drawing may have been after a tribal mask – but I can’t recognise it now! It was fun to do anyway.
Venetian blinds
Is she an artist’s model? Or just a woman enjoying the warmth falling on her through the blinds which provide seclusion?
A mixed media piece with collage, contour drawing and distortion!
Image 8×10 inches (20×25.5 cm).
Last post of the year – wish it was warm enough to sit around in the nude!
Happy New Year.
