Latest paintings.

It seems like an eternity since I last posted here. My life has been pretty busy lately.

I went to a workshop with a fabulous artist by the name of Joe Hush last week.
I really enjoyed it......... although I`m not keen on my version of his picture.

 My trouble was, I kept fiddling while I waited for Joe to do the rounds. I would like to paint this again someday, but without the fiddling. I found that I had too much time on my hands and so I over worked it all. Never mind......there`s always tomorrow, to try again.
I do like my farmer and sheep though....lol.

This is as far as I got during the work shop, the rest I finished off at home......

Another painting that I have done recently is Ruth`s reference of some juicy red grapes.

I have painted this picture several years ago, from a reference photo by my friend Ruth Harris.

I prefer my earlier attempts, but here is the newest painting anyway.

OOOOOHHHH, and I nearly forgot to mention...

I entered 3 paintings into the Federation of Northern Art Society`s autumn exhibition, and all three paintings were juried in, that was a nice surprise.

The exhibition is on until January 29th at the Woodhorn Museum, if you are interested in popping in for a look-see.
