This week I have finally done something I had in mind for months, since giving up the day job. I've gone through my two portfolios and sorted our various paintings that have been hidden away for far too long and I am slowly loading them up into my Etsy shop. Perhaps there they can find homes where they will be loved and looked at! The above is an acrylic of a coastal walk in Alderney - my friends and I hiked miles and miles along these paths as teenagers.
A little watercolour of the apple blossom on our tree - it's nearly that time of year again, so no doubt another blossom painting will ensue.
I love painting horses and it shows in this one - surely someone would like this on their wall?
A lot of my paintings are a travelog - this is a watercolour of Rome after we spent a day there during a trip to Italy.
This is a watercolour of Victorian ruins on Pigeon Island, St. Lucia - another favourite thing to paint, old stonework!
My one and only foray into oil painting - love the effect, hate the drying time.
A watercolour of the rainforest in St. Lucia - I used a very limited palette for this if I remember, possible only two colours, no more than three.
A coloured pencil sketch of a saluki - you will know my soft spot for these dogs, just so beautiful.
A watercolour painting of a pair of sparrows I saw on Boston Common a few years ago. I love to paint sparrows too - they initially look drab but once you study them, they are such pretty birds. I love their cheeky personalities too.
So if you look in my shop, these and a few more will be making an appearance and hopefully going off leaving some room in my portfolios for more work.
