I enjoy painting and find it relaxing but have a limited ability to draw! Consequently many of my earlier ones were "Painting by Numbers", sometimes modified from the original colours. So my thanks to Reeves and Royal & Langnickel for producing them so that I could do the colouring in.
In September 2016 I joined a U3A Painting for Fun group which is developing my skills slowly as well as dramatically increasing my output. I am doing original paintings, some are non-specific and some are re-worked from photographs I have taken when I am out. I have been using acrylics as I have a wealth of pots left over from the painting by number sets to use up! I have also just started to use water colours which is proving challenging!
Mediums are canvas, paper and board.
2019 I have obtained a pyrography set and an engraving kit which should open some new avenues to explore.
