Old Swinford School Doorway in the snow

This is the old doorway of the Headmasters entrance to the Old Swinford Hospital School
http://www.oshsch.com/ This is painted on Arches paper and is a quarter sheet size. I worked from a black and white photocopy of the colour photo and yes I know it looks strange but the snow is only falling across one side of the picture.

This school is only a short way away from where I live and is a beautiful old building and highly thought of in the area

Sheep in Field in winter

Not sure if this has worked, I finished it yesterday

Pumpkin Project

This is just a fun picture that I did for Halloween,

My latest painting

This is my latest watercolour and it is of my own front door it is small approx 5 x 7" and is on Arches paper with Winsor & Newton paints

Finally painting again - Blue Door

I bet you all wondered when I would post something again, I have had a few problems of late and one of those is hurting my middle finger of my right hand and for the past couple of weeks have had great difficulty holding a brush however have just finished this Blue Door which is from a photo I found on Wet Canvas. I hope to have some more paintings that are nearly done finished over the next week or two and then in about another 4 weeks will be able to hold a needle and do some more embroidery and it is stitting there looking at me shouting 'stitch me' but I find it just too difficult with two fingers strapped together, still one good thing like this there is no pain.

I have used some artistic licence with this painting and added some extra wysteria and a couple of planters for added interest, hope you all like it

Its been framed

It has been framed, I have chosen this frame for my beautiful watercolour painted by Rhonda as I thought that the wood looked just like a real window frame so we now have a window within a window.

Bargello

As Bargello seems to be all the rage at the moment I realised that I had never added a picture of my Loretta Spears design Bargello Fantasy after I had it framed. This was made as a Companion piece to my Bargello Symphony
