A painting of Pink Roses. They are in our garden and they look brilliant, the real ones that is. I painted them this morning, and really enjoyed painting them. I was having difficulty mixing for the Pink, I wasn`t satisfied, so I asked my wife Rosemary, and she said try Red and white, I said I don`t think so, it should be red and yellow. i tried Red and white and bingo. perhaps I should get her to mix my colours eh?

Greenwich Church.I did this painting years ago. I did a sketch of it and a photograph. I always try to do the painting from the sketch, but never succeed. I have`to refer to the photograph. I might have a go at doing it again from this painting. I haven`t got the photo anymore. P.S. Mind you I had`to paint the Chiddingstone Oast`s fron a pencil sketch.

Oast`s at Chiddingstone was created from a pencil sketch that I did years ago. I changed it a lot to the sketch. I have added a couple of figures. The Lady is taking a photo of the oast`s, and her Husband is looking on.

I have for some time fancied painting a Caravan. The Tree is imagination, well, so is the rest of the painting. I`m pleased with the Impressionistic Caravan.
