Having re-established my sketching habit, I am determined to maintain it now that I'm back in Britain. So I'm putting it in black and white:

Keeping warm

Wow, it's been icy outside - but luckily I've had a couple of studio days scheduled so I've been admiring the frosty transformation of the world from my window while spending long hours arting.... and here's my latest canvas: The model is one of the feral goats roaming around Snowdonia, which we saw on the heather terraces on the side of Tryfan recently. I have two more canvases in progress but unfortunately not a lot of studio time - still got most of my Christmas shopping to do! Incidentally, in between times I've updated some of the pages of this blog, so why not take a look; you may even find the ideal Christmas gift for a loved one ....

Last-minute addition

I love the long summer days - they mean I can paint much later into the evening. And because of those extra hours of natural light, I have completed another painting, which I'll also be bringing to the Fair in The Square tomorrow in Shrewsbury. Just got to get on with packing now!

I repeat .....

Well, it's that time of year again, when I trot off down to The Oswestry Visitor and Exhibition Centre to enter two of my paintings in the Oswestry and Shropshire Art Competition . My two entries are shown in this post. There are two types of award in this competition: those decided by the judges, and those decided by YOU, yes you out there, the Viewer's Choice Prizes . So, as in previous years, I would urge you to take yourself down to the exhibition - which runs from 30 July through to 28 September - and, if you like my work, please vote for me, and if you don't like my work, please vote for me anyway!
