My go at a Master after an Art Society demo a couple of months ago - it's easy when someone has made all the decisions already! Oil on canvas

Artist of the Year Shortlist!

Very excited to have this painting, Tin Plate Toy Globe, shortlisted for Artist and Illustrators Artist of the year 2013! I haven't seen the other entries but I'm sure the standard is scarily high and they probably won't choose a still life as winner for a second year. Great to get that far though - I feel like a winner already!
Here's the link if you want to vote for me!

Baby Steps!

Still teaching myself landscape painting - it's very hard going!
