Curly


Curly

What can I say .. Curly was a very challenging portrait to paint but in a fun way.. She made me think out side my square about just how I would go about painting her fleece.

You really dont realise how many various shades of cream, beige and grey are in a sheeps fleece until you start painting.

Curly will be heading off the Moree Gallery  in June 2013.

Ralph the pig


Ralph

Ralph the rather inquisitive pig.. I recently brought a new horse and Ralph  was one of the other inhabitants on the property he came from.

Ive always wanted to draw or paint a pig but hadn't met one that I really thought had character till I met Ralph or rather my hubby took pics of Ralph and I saw them when we got home.

So meet

Peek a boo


Peek A Boo

Been a while since I posted a blog .. will make sure to remedy that this year.. the last couple of months have been what you could call a write off ..


Finished Peek a Boo off this morning I decided to use a different paper from my usual canson pastel paper.. 
 
This time around I used art spectrum "colour fix" which is a little like working on smooth sandpaper giving the image a textured look.
 
Peek a Boo is  off to WA for an exhibition unless sold prior...

Thank you Katherine Waddington for the use of your photo ☺
