Here's a watercolour of Morning Glories.
My friend, Catherine, has an allotment and grows things for me, then I plant them on my balcony.
I actually watched these opening from my bed, it really was a glory to see..
couldn't wait to paint them. About 20" squarish!!
That's enough for now!!! Thank you all for the lovely comments. MMxx

I'll still be doing my watercolours, oils, inks etc. It's just the pastels giving problems.
Here's an Ink painting of our local (Southborough) church and cricketers. MM
(they had red caps on - not red heads!!)

I haven't tried digital art really as yet. A long time ago I had a tablet thingwe - that you drew on with another thiingwe!! It was fun, I did draw and produce a couple of fun Christmas cards on there but then it conked out, so I didn't bother anymore!!  MM |

Yes, Scyll - I've just noticed the blob got cleared away. The wind sounds mighty strong at the moment.  MM |

Over time, I have tried everything - masks, open windows etc. But, I get so involved when painting everything goes by the board!! I even tried lighting up a pastel chalk when I was smoking analogues!! One day Li5a! I might put more pics on - I'm a bit slow in coming forward!! I haven't painted for nearly a year now as I've been concentrating on 'the move' packing etc - two exhibitions coming up and nothing to show!! I organise them so have to be there!!  MM |

Not over Sham. We've been watching them grow, being fed etc. I'm now waiting for the first flight but I don't know when that will be. MM

I've just been cleaning up my chalk pastels with the thought of taking them to Art Society tomorrow, to give away to someone but.... I love them so much, I am sad. Problem is, the chalk dust upsets my sinuses these days, which is not good. I haven't used them for a long while really but just handling them now, gives me the urge!!! So what do you think? They take up quite a lot of space as I keep them in two trolley bags!! There may not be room for them when I eventually move. I think I have attached a pic of one I did a while ago, part of a series of Bluebell Woods, at least 24" high without the frame. They all sold immediately  MM |
