Protest

My protest at the massive Price Hike at eBay


http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150016670954

If you are a buyer on eBay then your choice in the future will probably be much reduced, so add this to your watch list and if you can bid as well to voice your protest.

Change in Strategy

As you may or may not be aware eBay has announced massive rises in fees for store sellers which has resulted in a large number leaving and seeking other outlets for their art. If you are missing an artist you like on eBay then use the search engines to find them.

I shall probably be closing my eBay store and will sell direct from my website
www.wiz.to/art where you will still be able to buy using Paypal or Credit Card.

Commissioned Waterfall Painting in Watercolour

I've just finished and delivered this commissioned waterfall painting in watercolour to another new customer who was delighted.


This waterfall in Yorkshire is approached through a pub!
You go through the pub, you can of course stop for some refreshment to fortify you for the 1/4 mile walk to the scene! and down the back path and onwards.

There are a number of waterfalls at Ingleton and although the trip here will take you several hours it is well worth the effort. Another famous waterfall is Aysgarth Falls, which I have also painted, this one is in Acrylic and rather large at 48" x19"



I am shortly off on a pilgimage to 'Constable' country, so should have some material for inspiration on my return.
