I picked a few of these small daisies and just plonked them in this vase to stand on my window ledge...but decided to paint them first. I like the shape of this small vase and I find yellow a difficult color to paint sometimes, so thought it would be a good challenge for me...and It was!!

Another very nice surprise..."Olive Snack" was selected for FASO's Fav 15% in theApril Boldbrush Competition....I can't believe it! That is the second one, It is really encouraging!

 Ordinary People

This guy cleaning windows was actually up on a hydraulic lift, so it was a great opportunity for a photo! I have been carrying my camera everywhere with me since I decided on the theme of ordinary people. There are subjects everywhere that I probably would not have have noticed before...great fun! The colors in this are not very good it seems to be too blue...this is the best I could get it!!

This pair of Australian Rainbow Lorikeets arrive on my daughter's window ledge almost every morning for a spoonful of honey. Sometimes they get cheeky and even jump right inside!!  Last time I was on holiday there, I managed to get a photo...love their beautiful colors!!

Winter Day- Sketch

Pastel

This last weekend it was so cold I couldn't be bothered even getting my palette set up! I sat looking out the window at this view across from my studio...after a couple of hours it got the better of me and I got my pastels out and did this quick small sketch! Felt much better for doing it instead of procrastinating....and it beats housework!!

Our sunset on Thursday night this week! This is the view across to the Estuary  from my studio window, we have some beautiful sunsets!! I find them difficult to paint because they almost look artificial, so it's good practice for me. I couldn't let this pass without having a go!
