More Art on the way

 The stone piece decides the paintings...


This is one of many Owls i have had the pleasure of painting...

It stands roughly 2 feet tall, and 2 feet in the longest part of length..

  It is for sale, although most of my art hasn't got time to stick around and collect dust before it gets sold.









This Peacock has been painted on 1.5 feet by 2 feet slate stone...

This peacock has already been sold, a day after it was created..




All my paintings on stone have been applied using Gouache watercolour paints.

I hope you enjoy the many more I have waiting within my paint brushes..

Watch this space to see what will be next..

Thank you

We brought our handmade basket i made from grape vines, i snipped the flower while my little daughter collected them up.  Boiling water to make our cordial while we watched the lightning fork the sky.
