Thanks for stopping by my blog. I am currently caring for my sick mother and so, while I have uploaded some past works my new work will likely be slow in coming.
While life is not exactly the way I planned it right now, I wouldn't choose to be anywhere else.
I have created this blog to remind me, in the meantime, of who I am and what it is that I 'do'.
I hope you enjoy my 'stuff' as much as I enjoy yours.
Have a lovely day!

These are some 'pieces' of still life drawings I did a couple of years ago. I wasn't happy with the drawings in their entirety but quite liked them cut down.

Mmmm..I am trying to envision what the pieces would look like in their entirety. I do like them pieced - they could be displayed in a variety of ways. Very cool. xoxoxo
I love pastel,,,and you handle it very nicely. Great vessels and fruit,,,so many possibilities for these pieces. Would love to see what you come up with! They'd be great, just as small miniatures,,,,I'm picturing them with large mats.

Colour!
I love colour.
I love to play with colour and try not to take myself too seriously.
I work with matt acrylics, watercolour, gauche, inks and whatever else takes my fancy. I use artist quality paints and pigments and Arches 300 gsm paper usually. Sometimes I will stretch my paper directly onto a canvas or onto a frame as I work really wet to begin with and I've yet to find a gummed tape that stands up to it.
A bit eclectic really.
This blog has been created to showcase my artwork.
Feel free to contact me via the email link if you are interested in anything.

You add such shimmering interest to all that you produce. I even like your still lifes (I am usually not fond of them). :o)
I cropped the hell out of my photos when I didn't like the complete picture! Whatever works, right? And,they look good to me.

Nice color, hatching, and tone in these. Congrats!
