At last, I have managed to get to do a painting this afternoon. 1.5 hours. Hopefully I am back in the swing again.

1907 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud





In the absence of a painting, I thought I would post these lovely Models of Vintage Cars. The first one is a 1938 Jaguar SS-100. The second is a 1935 Mercedes 500K. the third is a 1930 Duesenberg Tourster. And the last one is a 1907 Rolls Royce Silver cloud. They are all precission made models made by Franklin Mint. At the time they cost around £80 each. That was a lot of money in 1980 when I bought them but I love them.

This painting is from a photograph that a Blogger friend posted on `Paint my Photo` site. Teresa is the name. She did give me permission to paint it. Don`t know what it is called though.

Iceberg adrift


This painting is from my own photograph. It depicts a broke away chunk from a much larger piece, and the tone of the water only. The Water tone is created from the shadow of the Iceberg.

Shall I?. 9x12, Oils on board.


This was painted from an Oil Sketch that I did on site. It`s a Village called Chiddingstone. I believe it gets it`s name from a big stone nearby. It`s a rock really.

Farnborough, Kent. 6x8, oils on board.



I did this painting Plein Air this morning at around 9am. I had virtually finished it when a chap with his dog came up and said, could I have a look, naturally I said yes. that was it. no more painting. He told me his life story and I told him some of mine. All I had`to do to complete it was place that little sign in that dark area, so I did it at home. I did enjoy the chat though. The Photo is my kit packed and ready to leave.
