A moment of rest before setting off on my merry way, cheerfully bringing cheer to all that spy my trailing pretties. Trailing Pretties (mixed media painting on canvas, 50x50cm)  

So there was I, hair and make up done, sat there batting my eyelashes to all the passers by. Then a breeze ruffled  my carefully coiffured foliage, encouraging any willing departees to feel the air beneath them and take flight […]

Don’t I look enchanting as my blues catch the corner of your eye? Really, you love my swaying locks of peachy blooms, but it’s the homeliness of the welcoming light that draws you in. Why not catch a petalled cluster […]

Come in, come in! Mind my lanterns. Look at them burning so brightly, aren’t they pretty? Makes you want to sing doesn’t it? Good job you’re here. Gather round. How about a spot of Good King Wenceslas? Lanterns Door (mixed […]

It’s Christmas! I’m all ready and waiting for the big day. Notice my red decorations and twinkly lights 😊. Now when’s Santa arriving so I can get them to polish my handles? It’s Christmas Door (mixed media painting on canvas […]
