Just for fun!!

Just for fun, and because it's always good to try something different, I decided to paint this tree in a style very different to my own. I am quite pleased with it and it was a great exercise in spontanteity. Acrylics on canvas.

Alan Cotton - Everest

I was most priviledged last night to hear Alan Cotton speak about his painting journeys and meet him and his lovely wife. So very inspiring (and totally different from the sort of painting that I do) I am tempted to let my hair down and try some big landscapes! You can see some of his paintings here http://www.alancotton.co.uk/paintings/

All framed up and ready to go to Gloss Gallery on Saturday for the South West Academy Open 2012
