Blast from the past...


Digging through your portfolio some times leads to finding long forgotten work. I drew this pic about 16 years ago, but I still like it. Finding this is kind of like trying on an old pair of jeans only to find a £10 note in the pocket! :-) I've published the image through zazzle here

Morning Walk



This painting was inspired by some cows that came to investigate me when I was walking through a Gloucestershire field a couple of years ago. It's painted in acrylic and using acrylic glaze medium. It's entitled "Morning Walk" and is available here
