Inspired by demand.......





Sometimes I'm in the middle of a 'batch' of paintings of say, Scottish Highlands, or Venetian Canals, when I get a request that sidetracks me. I originally started painting portraits after graduation in the 70's, so the chance to do some figurative work appealed when an agent asked me to supply some for next year's Art Fairs, which are very prestigious events ( and I NEEd a good agent) So my latest not only fits the bill, hopefully, but helps me prepare for iAPS, as one of my workshops there is about Painting Children! 2 birds - 1 stone - Love it!!

Stages of 'Ice Flow' and a new one from the easel




I've added the stages for the large 'Ice Flow Glencoe' as requested, and included the new painting that is just finished this morning from our recent visit to the Isle of Mull, Glen More - very striking scenery, similar to Glencoe, and to top it all, we saw Golden Eagles flying overhead - wow!!
