A Stitch in Time

6"x6" Oil on board

SOLD

This is another from my cotton series I did a while ago, I had painted half of it and for some reason  never got around to finishing it...finally it's done! I enjoy painting something close-up and keeping it simple.This is a very ordinary reel of cotton.... but violet is one of my favourite colours!   My posts have been  few and far between this last week,  I've been away for five days and my access to the internet was limited...very frustrating.. back to normal now though!

This is from one of my holiday photos taken in Sydney earlier this year...I like the chimneys and TV aerials on these Terrace House rooftops  and among all the grey... one was painted red!

Another morning watching the boats heading out for a days fishing... it's a quiet peaceful time of the day, not many people around other than the fishermen... I love it! They start early in the morning and I think they must have a race to see who can get to the best fishing spot!
