I wanted to capture the flat farms and the big sky on my last picture. Hope I did it justice.

This room waiting room is called #transport . I managed to draw this #FromLife . The other fellow patient waiter was glued to their phone watching something very interesting no doubt.

Painted snake river at Hellls Canyon. Bad names- no snakes, and the canyon was *lovely*.

day 1368: we had some moments of sun today so I was able to get to the park to do day 2 on this #PleinAir from last week ☀️

I think it’s done now, ready to be untaped once it dries 🪩

This is an oil painting I made recently of a very old Olive Oil Jar.
The Jar was found in a ship wreck on the bottom of the Red Sea. I thought It deserved a portrait.

A different post, An Oil Study of me from Kent Artist Sandra Dean.
Taken from a painting course led by the late Ken Paine back in 2012.
A great man, visionary painter and slightly eccentric tutor.
