This girl is going to be warm for winter!! She knows it and she looks pleased with herself...well anyway...those are my thoughts when I look at her!! I will always enjoy painting sheep no matter what they look like. I love painting all that wool!!

I Love My Dreads

Back to sheep again! Often something special about them stands out...it could be their coat or their eyes...this time it was the dreads I loved and no hairdresser needed either!! I enjoy painting these animals they are so gentle!

This one almost painted itself, I love it when that happens!

Poor girl is in need of a haircut! This was a bit of fun, I love painting close ups of animals, especially sheep and cows. The trick is to get a photo with the right expression which means taking lots of photos!!  I loved the shaggy wool on this girl.

Changing it up again...sheep this time! Love these woolly farm girls and the way they stand and stare. I used a limited palette of raw sienna, burnt sienna,yellow ochre, ultra blue and white. It's a whole lot of fun  painting their coats and trying to get that woolly look!! I have another one coming up...stay tuned!

First Sales for 2016

A happy start to 2016. Two lovely ladies came to my studio and bought these paintings, it was so good to meet and talk with them and to know where my work is going to live! That is the BEST thing about my job, I get to meet the nicest people!!

I love the gentle faces of sheep and this girl was looking very smart (hence the title) and well groomed! I enjoyed painting her!!

I am going to Australia to see my family in a few days so won't be painting for two weeks...I will be taking lots of photos for when I get back!!

I had the title for this before I painted it! It was my first thought when I saw the woolly mess...she definitely needs a good wash and haircut!! Sheep aren't very colorful but I love painting them...I used a limited palette of  raw umber, ultramarine blue,yellow ochre and white for this.

Love the way the lamb is tucked in beside the Mother!   These sheep are kept in a paddock along side a walkway near the Estuary. I have got behind with my painting again...other than everyday life getting  in the way, I have been working on other paintings for two exhibitions. I need another few hours in my days!
