This year I was lucky enough to paint a 2.5m tall giraffe called Boaty, for #Cambridge and I did a tiny version of it too for myself. And I also painted a miniature ox to raise funds for Sobell House Hospice in #Oxford. Inspired by The Boat Race, Oxford Uni Boat Club and University of Oxford.

True Blue was inspired by the Oxford University Rowing team and The Boat Race. I painted him to raise funds at auction (up till 15 Dec) for Sobell House Hospice in #Oxford as I was an #OxTrail2024 artist. Prices are very reasonable indeed. Link in comments.

Oxgloves was inspired by the Oxfordshire countryside and is surrounded by white and lilac foxgloves. I painted him to raise funds at auction for Sobell House Hospice in #Oxford, as I was an #OxTrail2024 artist. Prices are very reasonable indeed. Link in comments.
