Monday 25. 05. 15 I have been experimenting with coloured pencils today and am wondering about trying this en plein air.
Month: May 2015
Old books and canoes
Saturday 12. 05. 15 I made this for Maddy and David as a gift for their “Jardinade” today. The image is based on Arthur Heming’s well-known painting – the bottle is Maple syrup not Rye whisky which is hard to find here!! The other image is the “box” for Laurie’s poems which is in fact The Virginians by Thackeray which I converted for the poems.
Florida poems
Saturday 16. 05. 15 I have been working on a unique edition of Laurie’s poems.
Boules encore
Friday 08. 05. 15 Finally got back to this one after about 5 months!
Meze
Wednesday 06. 05.15 Had to go to Meze the afternoon to get some sand for a project that I am working on. The beach was as beautiful as always.
Les jeunes
Friday 01. 05. 15 Did these two portraits of Julia and Andrew’s two children, Ilya 8 months and Quinn 3 years old. They are all staying at Claire’s house in Montpellier while Andrew is studying French. I can’t believe how difficult it is painting babies and young children and I suspect that I may have to revisit these a few more times!
