Greetings!
More paintings just off the press. This is almost becoming a ‘painting a day’ situation.. I doubt I could keep up with a PAD, too much other stuff to get done and I tend to want to paint something more substantial than a glass jar, just to say that I’ve done my painting for the [...]

Here is another painting I started yesterday, this one is from a photograph I took in Victoria in November last year. It’s still a work in progress.. I have two others also started yesterday/today, also from photo’s which I will post soon.
It’s been a busy day here and I’ve managed to get through a lot. [...]

I was walking into the centre of Beijing that day (July 2004 – a [...]

Howdy all, I thought I should start showing some ‘painting work in progress’ images. This one is an oil painting, 30″ x 30″. It’s of a Snow gum that I photographed up on Mt Buffalo .. (http://tinyurl.com/aorgsb ) in November last year. Mt Buffalo is on the Myrtleford side of Bright in Victoria’s alpine region. [...]

Well I had my first oil painting sell through Etsy during the week! It was a small 10 x 6″ panel and I sold it for US$80.
