I promise I'm working on some new still life watercolours but here's another old one, quite large and sold ages ago. Not a good reproduction as it is scanned from a photo print of the original but an example of the large flower paintings I was producing 30+ yrs ago (see alt text) #watercolour

A flower still life in oil on gessoed board from nearly a decade ago (sold). The camera distorts the difference in size between the painting and the subject but gets the colour pretty acurately (an excellent DMC-LX5- still in use)

One of my old watercolour studies of roses.

An old watercolour sketch of Cambridge Trinity Street. I must admit that populating the streets with people in their may ball finery did well for sales at a time when I really needed the money!

A compact cluster of tiny purple flowers stands out against a soft, muted background, letting color and repetition do the work.

If you enjoy noticing small details like this, I’m glad you’re here — feel free to share it along.

Six fishermen who cast a line in the frozen Saguenay River in the Canadian province of Quebec worked for more than two hours to reel in an Atlantic halibut that broke local records. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/07/w...

I know it’s been a while (sorry) and it’s not even great light to show you, but I’ve just finished my first embroidery of 2026. 😊 I hope it was with the wait and that you enjoy!🪡🌿🦉✨

Just one flower left on the Amaryllis. It gave us two stems and many flowers.

My amaryllis on my kitchen window - looking good! #flowers #amaryllis

I could care less how many of you live on the East Coast and in New England, the only team to root for today in said Füūsêball Superbowl is

THE SEAHAWKS!!!!!!!!!

As my late brother would end literally every single one of his text messages with:

This is one which my American followers might like, this is a watercolour painting (photographed is the print) of a Carolina Wren, this is one of my favourite paintings I've done, I have a print of it on my wall next to my computer :)
