Sold my beautiful Cornish Girl . Sad to see her go........
This is really working as an Artist. It`s almost painful. Just how it is going into work on a monday. Got to get on with it. It got so bad and messy I reverted to an old photo to get me started again.

Now my 3rd day on this. It`s the one I want for the RA .

I want to submit for the Royal Academy  summer show this year.
I havn`t done this before probably because  the rejection would have been unbearable. and because I`ve bee so busy selling work I`ve had nothing spare although the first excuse is nearer the truth.

So I`m doing a yellow tree a Moroccan painting and  and blocky takes weeks to make one.

Here is the yellow tree unfinished . The tree is bigger. And the detail on the leaves needs to be layered.

7 page spread with Dora Holzhandler and Vanessa Cooper

Tickled pink to be next to Dora Holzandler in Artists and Illustratorrs Magazine Jan 2012.
Dora is one of the most visually charming painters I know of and is probably Britains foremost painter of the Naive Genre.

Wohay! I am in the Artists and Illustrators Mag doing a 7 page bit on Naive Art with Dora Holzandler and Vanessa Cooper. Nice to be in between two eminent Painters

So from the last painting which still needs loads done.
This has developed.
Looking foreward to finishing this.

The Theme of Fishermen coming home to their wifes and girlfriends.
First day back in the studio,

Really hard to get back in but this paintings development is giving me ideas about my next painting.
