Some images of my paintings



















Someone cleverer ( thanks Bridget!, Don!)  than me suggested I put some of my paintings onto this blog.  So here they are.

Recent images from the workshop














I just attended a 5 day, 6 hours a day intensive life drawing workshop. These are a few images of my drawings - sorry, I didn't get organized and photograph any of the quick poses.  These range from 20- about 40 minute drawings.  The ones in ink are done with a long broken wooden dowel dipped into a pot of ink, so the control is not exact and the medium is very unforgiving.  I had a wonderful time, and feel fired up and ready to participate in our first ever Life Drawing Exhibition - " Body of Work" - at Portals Gallery, opening September 27.  My co- exhibitors are my two very dear friends, and very brilliant artists, Sharron Campbell and Kaye Smillie.
