Life is busy

I've not had much chance to paint recently, however here is a picture taken with my new camera, which hopefully will prove useful in obtaining refrence material for future paintings. Went for a sail with my brother yesterday in his new boat (wealthy git!) managed to get back without downing or sinking anything else. Have been preparing for a Craft demonstration day tomorrow.

This is a rose (I think,I belong to the 'machette and flamethrower school of gardening') taken yesterday evening.

Only this one now available

Surf Shore

From the paintings posted here earlier this is the only one left still available, so check it out soon.

Latest Acrylic Seascape Painting

Have just completed my latest Acrylic Seascape Painting entitled 'A Rough Passage Home'. Unsure whether to keep this for the Summer Exhibition or to place it on eBay. If you are interested in this piece please contact me.

Busy time

No new pictures to show you today as I have been trying to sort out a few things, plus a walk to my twin brother's house to check if a parcel had been delivered (it hadn't) He's sunning himself in Spain at the moment, lucky so and so, the weather here is appalling, windy, wet, and they keep slapping on drought orders!

I hope it improves tomorrow as I have to go to Buckinghamshire, perhaps I might get a chance to do some quick sketching. Now where's that paintbrush.......

Bargain Time

Since eBay decided to have a cheap day for listing fees , there are now a number of bargains that you can check out. Bargain time Now is perhaps the time to buy that painting or print that you've been promising yourself, and fill that space on your wall that is just asking for a picture.

On the Beach

Not listed an ACEO for ages so check this one out. For those who have not heard of ACEO's they are 'Art Cards Editions and Originals' miniature works of art that are always 2.5 x 3.5 inches. Avidly collected, particularly in the USA they can be a good way to have an art collection for which you don't have to be a millionaire.

HMS Victory Entering Portsmouth

This is the latest bargain up for auction, and can be found in my eBay Store.

HMS Victory was Admiral Lord Nelson's famous flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. It is now preserved in Portsmouth's Historic dockyard where it is open to visitors. It is the oldest commissioned warship in the Royal Navy, though now used for ceremonial duties only. Not really equipped to cope with modern warfare.

Good News Bad News

The BAD NEWS - The original of this painting has just been sold. The GOOD NEWS is that limited edition prints are available from my Ebay Store just Click Here

Don't miss out on the opportunity to own an original piece of artwork, 35 of my originals have already gone this year, and not all have prints available.

Seems like I must get down to some serious painting, particularly for the Summer Exhibition.

Independent Artists Exhibition

These are a couple of entries for the eBay Independent Artists Exhibition, only a few days left to see some great art by one of the most talented groups on eBay.

My poor wife now has a temporary filling and has to go back in a few weeks for more dental work. Glad it's not me!.

The website glitches just get weirder, I kept getting messages that things weren't available last night, then it seemed to work a bit later. Have just spent the morning sorting out a Water Butt and drainpipe system as we are desperately short of the wet stuff and the Water compnaies are starting to place restrictions, guess I'll just have to not clean the car!

Enjoy these
