Thinking big.

I have managed to get down to the shed/art studio/opera theatre/drinking den most days.  Even though some days I had about half an hour of daylight.  Which I need for my art work as I do not like electric light.  But then, you do not need daylight to enjoy the rest of the uses I put the shed to!


I have managed to do quite a bit of painting including the one I framed for the DP using a frame recycled from a charity shop.


This has to be the biggest painting I have ever done.  They may look like patchwork elephants to you, (they do to me too.)  I really enjoyed painting them, slapping it on and more and more.  I have to thank Jake Winkle who is the artist who has inspired me.

Today I finished ,


I finally got the flock together.  Problem is I broke the only large frame I had left.  Is it worth having it done properly?


Not sure what Minerva thinks.

Big mice.

I like these paintings and yes, frame the chickens; they look very lively. Is Minerva thinking of chasing them?

I really like your 'slap it on' pictures - very colourful. Yep, you need to get a frame.
