I'm back...


Well, I've come back to reality after a 2 week break with my family in Cairns. It was a wonderful christmas and new year with lots of relaxing and lounging about whilst enjoying some holiday fare!!! Our garden was like a jungle when we arrived back but after a hard days work today, it now looks respectable again! It's now time to focus on the year ahead and all that it may hold. I have many plans for this year and will hopefully start putting some in place in the not too distant future. One of them includes setting more time aside for painting, which I love. The painting above is one I did for a friend just before christmas and it was my first request {blue & white jars with pink lillies} which was most exciting. I was quite pleased with the result.

Trio of jars...


My makeshift painting area...

This is a painting I recently did for one of my lovely friends who was married not long ago. She loves yellow so I did an arrangement of yellow ginger jars and a blue/white one also which she loves also. I haven't had much time for painting lately but now that my studies are over for the year I am hoping to do some more - it is my 'time out' from the world and I enjoy it thoroughly. I am thinking about what I could paint to go above my new pink chairs...

Memories...




Just looking at this picture takes me back to our Europe holiday last year... I recently painted this scene in watercolours for my husband as an anniversary present (the colours look a bit off in the photo I took of it sorry!) . We stayed in a little apartment on Ile de la cite on aux fleurs. On our last day we walked over to the Ile St Louis and had a gelati and looked back to our apartment. This is the view in the painting. I'll have it framed in a vintage looking frame which should look great!
