- Sometimes it's the little things...this mini painting was a delight to work on 🍓
- This painting has been safely delivered to the delightful Jarva Gallery in Buxton. It's called The Money Spider for those out there wanting a spotters badge 🧐 🫡
- Painting some bright colours to encourage in the lighter days ahead...
- Looking for that perfect Christmas gift? A painted pineapple 😃🍍...
- This little painting will be part of the very first Secret Coast exhibition at the beautiful Tighnabruaich Gallery in Scotland 🥳
- I'm busily working my way through my submissions for this year’s Royal Miniature Society exhibition 🧐
- Inspired by my recent visit to the National Gallery and the stunning work of Rachel Ruysch, I thought I'd paint some flowers, and a ladybird for those with good eyesight 🧐 🤭
- Here's a little painting recently sent down to the delightful Cotswold Contemporary Gallery...summer fruit is finally back 🥳
- This has to be one of my favourite compositions to paint...though the etching on the jug can be a little challenging 😵💫
- Painting miniatures really helps focus your mind of what to include, and more importantly exclude, to make a composition work...I'd highly recommend getting out the magnifying glass and having a go 🧐
- I love painting dandelions...though I'm not so keen on tidying up the mess from the seed heads afterwards 🥴
- This painting was such a delight to work on, especially knowing what was awaiting once I'd finished 😋
- This beautiful copper jug, for my latest painting, came from a local thrift shop. I love the marks and dents in the surface, bringing its own history along. I often wonder where they have come from and what they have seen?
- For those who love chocolate, but not the calories, this miniature painting is the perfect Easter gift 😄
- Possibly my most complicated miniature painting so far. It reminded me that I have an opticians appointment on Friday 🧐🤭
- The beauty of painting fruit is trying to recreate the unique markings, colours and shapes of each individual piece. I can't ever imagine growing tired of trying to capture this. Thank you nature!
- This is my favourite copper kettle to paint. It was given to me from my dad, who salvaged it from a local scrap yard and cleaned it up for me.
- My latest little painting has sent me slightly crazy! 🥴
