Horses

For my Foundation Art Final Project I chose to do Mearas (Horses) - and here are the results - the warm up piece of Split Light, and the big, final piece of Shadowfax and Snowmane (it is 6 feet high and 8 feet wide!) Also featured are the only 2 horse paintings I'd completed before setting out on this adventure.

Boats...

Having been brought up sailing, I'm always trying to capture those perfect days spent coasting along in a beautiful boat. Hopefully you can feel it too.

Long time gone

.: Inside the little plastic castle :.


Well, I thought that last entry was just so out of date, I'd better do something about it...

Finished my course - did really well, with a Distinction (can't get any higher). Had a two week exhibition in a good Gallery, which was great.

Now I'm just trying to catch up with life... I spent the last 2 months constantly drawing and painting horses, and not seeing many folks, or doing anything other than think about horses, so now it will be nice to catch up. Meanwhile, I've also some new paintings planned; want to get them started this weekend.

And if you've just recived a thank you from me, and you don't know why, it's because I was going through my activity messages thinking "oh dear, I should have said thank you to (that person) months ago..." (and if I've missed you out, i apologise even more!)
