I was asked by the Arrtx company in China to review and test their new Graphite pencil range. I thought it would be a great idea to draw Leni who was the person I was dealing with. We liased and she provided me a photo of herself and hence am portrait was born. I tried the mew pencils on Bristol board which I had never used before and found it was absolutely exquisite. The blendabillity of the pencils and the smoothness of the paper almost made the Graphite pencils feel like pastel pencils. I

The little girl featured in this artwork is a child of a Facebook friend of mine in USA. She features in several of my artworks and has seen a gradual increase in her age. She is now probably around 14/15 years of age. Her Brother also features in some of my works. The picture I have featured is one of my very early Oil Pastels. The Pastels used were Sennilier and in fact my first with Sennillier. Very much still in an early learning phase with Oil Pastels at the time, I was very pleased with

Title or Location: GSD - A rollercoaster of emotion.
I started learning about colour pencils after seeing one of my Facebook friends post a picture of a drawing she had completed. She had signed up for the Bonny Snowdon Academy and had been following her tutorials. Up until that point, I had been a doodler. Always sketching on scraps of papers, napkins etc but never anything structured. I would look at other peoples art and be in awe of how artists drew so amazingly. So for my birthday I asked for some colour pencils and paper. I joined Bonnys

Title or Location: Mystic
"Mystic "is an intuitive work in acrylic on canvas and measures 61cm sqr. It begins life as a few marks on a blank canvas and from then on each mark suggests the next one. This is how all my paintings evolve. I am obsessed with colour and composition which seems to come naturally to me. I know when a work is finished because it seems to let me know " there is nothing more to do here, it is time to move on" I listen to my work now, instead of my inner critic and it is wonderful to know I have cre

I wanted to create a place of tranquility and quiet. A retreat into nature where you can take a moment to breathe. There is a hush over the valley. The storm is over and the water quietly continues on its way much as it has always done. It is here I invite you to stay for a moment or two and rest.
