Month: June 2014
Wild flowers
Saturday 28. 06. 14 Did another set of monoprints using dried flowers. Did poppies this time which unfortunately changed colour during the pressing and drying process. The broom retained their colour better altho they were duller too after drying and pressing.
Miller’s Springs
Monday 23. 06. 14 This is a small oil sketch of Lyn and Brian’s place in Kangaroo Valley where we stayed near the end of our trip to Australia.
Australians
Sunday 15. 06. 14 This is the first painting I have done since my return to France. It is based on a photo I took of a pair of dirty Blundstone boots left on the steps of a bakery whilst the owner went in to buy some bread. Very Australian – full of character, independent, practical and courteous.
Beach
Thursday 12. 06. 14 Today rode to the beach for the first time this summer. Besides the pleasure of riding the scooter again the beach was uncrowded and the water was warm.
Back home
Thursday 12. 06. 14 Arrived back home late Tuesday afternoon to a warm sunny evening. Yesterday I re-potted the plants in my window boxes and was astonished at this shoot. I wonder if it will flower?
