6″X4″ Oil on board I feel like I have painted this before, certainly others much like it. A bit of a cop-out today, I am working on a commission so I wanted to do something quick and simple for my daily painting. I don’t really do commissions, in f… [...]
7″X5″ Oil on panel These are painted a little larger than life size, they are very small and not quite ripe. I do love soft fruit season, soon it will be peaches which are probably my favourite. This hasn’t been a good year for the fruit growers th… [...]
6″X6″ Oil on panel Aubergines, a.k.a. eggplant, I haven’t painted them for a while. The middle one is called “graffiti”. Not much more to say really. The plate is “cargo ware” so named because they were imported in huge numbers and were used as bal… [...]

6″X4.5″ Watercolour on paper
I don’t do traditional watercolour very often any more. I bought a pack of A6 size handmade paper when I was in England and wanted to try it out with some good quality paint. It is quite satisfying for a change.
I am having difficulty with inspiration, I really [...]
7″X5″ Oil on panel
Sometimes I wonder what on earth I was thinking. What an odd choice of colour.
7″X5″ Oil on panel
My husband came home with these wonderful deep purple Red Delicious. I have never seen them that colour before so I had to try to paint one. I included a Royal Gala to show that there really isn’t anything wrong with your monitor. I did a WIP with this [...]
