I think ‘the smell of rain’ is finished – in time for the Ocean Shores art expo. Now need to continue on with ‘Treasured’, a painting of a dog who I saw one day when I was out and he was a very special and ‘treasured’ dog with a beautiful garland of flowers. These works are for the art expo with the theme ‘treasures’.

such a beautiful day
It was a beautiful day on the North Coast – the dappled light drifted in and helped with the painting. Not very good photos, wrong direction but I wanted to capture the light in the trees.
the smell of rain progressing
Getting the colours right and letting the light drift through the painting – still is work in progress
the smell of rain
New painting has begun – inspired by the fragrance of ‘the smell of rain’
the white rose
Drawing with Katka Adams and other like-minded artists is inspiring and stimulating, not to forget lots of fun. Then there is coffee, tea, cake and conversation. The group is having an exhibition at Northern Rivers Community Gallery. Opening night 5.30pm on Thursday 8 February 2018.
Final ‘Rainbow Sunflowers’
I think this is final!!!
Rainbow lorikeet and ‘Rainbow Sunflowers’
A rainbow lorikeet appears to be nesting in our big gum tree – and the ‘Rainbow Sunflowers’ painting is progressing too.
Growing sunflowers
I have been growing giant sunflowers – more than 2 metres tall. My plan was to paint sunflowers – a few seeds in the vegetable garden and no more vegetables but massive sunflowers.
Started painting sunflowers now – ‘rainbow sunflowers’ now in progress
Beautiful day for painting
The Flower Garden is finished – fun to paint because it is so happy. The sunflowers and agapanthus have begun flowering and more flower painting to come!! Some of the giant sunflowers haven’t yet blossomed but are soaring up to more than 6 feet. The echidna is doing its rounds. Love nature!
Oil on Canvas
