Noisy Neighbours!
10×8 inch oil on board

I wanted to capture his inner lion. Not sure if I’ve done that but he’s beautiful to paint.

The robin is a neighbour of ours. We watch him and his family going about their lives throughout the year.

I think I should call it noisy neighbours! :-)

Toffee and Thistle
14×11 acrylic on board
SOLD

This is a 14×11 inch acrylic painting on board. The background is made up of several layers of paint, the base colour was a warm pink with cooler lilacs over the top. As a result the background changes colour as the lighting changes, going from warm pinks to cool lilacs. Looks amazing but is very hard to photograph!

Here are a couple of close ups of the painting.

The Premier of China, Wen Jiabao has publicly stated that he is committed to saving the wild tiger. However, his government is allowing trade in tiger skins from tiger farms and skins taken before poaching was outlawed. This trade is acting as a smokescreen for skins taken by killing wild tigers. If China does not stop this trade, the wild tiger is doomed.

We are getting ever closer to 40,000 signatures for PLEASE sign the petition.

Molly And The Ladybird

It reminds me of the nursery rhyme ladybird, ladybird fly away home. I imagine she’s just about to do that.

Here is a close up detail.
