Click on the thumbnails to see a larger image. The painting of ducks is an oil on panel, and is of two mallards on the lake near my home. The next three paintings are American birds, chickadees, belted kingfisher, and cedar waxwings, and these are opaque watercolour on paper. And the cat and zebras are really just fun paintings. They are on canvas and are 1 metre x 1 metre, and 1 metre x 1.2 metres.
All artists know the fascination and challenge of the human form.
I come back to it again and again. The first two paintings are oil on canvas, and both 600 mm x 900 mm. They are painted from a low angle as I wanted to give the model a feeling of strength and superiority. The next two are small watercolour and charcoal sketches. I am very pleased with them.
