The fox - oil
A scene based on a photo from my morning walk.
I replaced our dog with a fox for a more dramatic contrast in colours.
The arch - oil
Oil painting based of a small arch in the botanical gardens in Oxford.
I added the cat and bird to bring some life to the scene.
Watercolour portrait test
My friend Michi kindly volunteered a photo of him and his daughter for me to practice my portrait painting from.
Oil portrait test
Just some experimenting in painting portraits in oil.
Lots of fun, but quite challenging. Something I want to continue to try.
Tea time - oil
I wanted to experiment with metallic effect paints on top of an oil painting.
A cup of tea seemed perfect for it!.
Cookie day - oil
A small oil painting I did as a leaving gift for a good friend.
Hopefully it will remind him of all the cookie eating we managed as a team :)
Winter scene oil
This oil painting is based on a photo I took one winters morning walking our dog by the river.
I added the sheep to bring some life to the scene.
Yellow Christmas
I painted this card to cheer up my friend.
I think this is how we've all felt about 2020.
