Hello, yes it's been awhile. Have been working on this piece and getting my website up and running.

I wasn't going to launch it until I had some prints for sale but what the heck!
Enjoy.

Paddle Pop Sticks.


Paddle Pop Sticks
oil on linen on board
20 x 20cm (8x8in)

This one's been sitting on the easel for a couple of weeks, just needed a few finishing touches to the shot glass and my new signature. Painting on linen was lovely, not as slippery as painting straight onto primed board.

Eggs with Blueberries


Eggs with Blueberries
oil on board, 20 x 20cm
SOLD

What a week! Started designing my own website, thats always fun! Met with builders to draw up plans for studio. We're going to convert half of our 6x6 shed to studio space complete with 2 huge skylights, insulation, work benches and a toilet and sink. Driveway guys coming tomorrow to bitumen our 200sq metre driveway, had builders here last week replacing roof on house and shed from the hail storm back in September and now hubbies talking about putting an extension on! No more!!
I finished this piece awhile ago but decided to start having work scanned at the art shop (rather than me take terrible photos) and get it framed at the same time. This piece along with 'Onion' and 'Puppy Love' are destined for Maleny Country Antiques and Collectibles in QLD where the owner is helping me find them good homes. Hope you like it!
