Artichokes

 

From a photo taken at peak harvest last year. A surprising hard subject. Delighted with the result.

Blaskets

 

This was from a photo I took when on hols easter 2007 - on a boat trip to the blaskets. Some interesting seacliffs. the general conclusion from this was that I should work on bigger pictures.

River patterns

 

First class we were working from one of Anne's paintings, but the first chace I got, I brought in one of my own photos - see below for detail from the photo - and I painted one small and one large painting like this - both paintings are in Boston - didn't take photos,I'm hoping that Katy will send me photos of them - framed!

 

 

The beginning

Joined Anne Kiernan's acrylics class in the Mullingar Arts center - results follow. Painting makes me feel like myself. You judge the rsults, I'm just happy with the way it makes me feel.
