I love the water and the moods it has as well as plant life that thrives at the water’s edge. Here is a scene to depict this simple stretch of water that laps against the reeds in the breeze.
Created with my trusty waxes and hot iron I blended the colours together on a box canvas measuring 30” x 20”.
Sometimes, you just don’t want to part with one of your own creations so perhaps I will re-create another but it will be slightly different!

At last I have come to the end of the Tulip Series! I created the last two. Now there are five. They can either be mounted separately or together to make a bigger impact.
Created in an ACEO size (3” x 2.5”) they allow you to own an original work of art for next to nothing!
#4 and #5 to be found in my Etsy shop.
Now to see all 5!
The next in the Tulip series of ACEOs is number three. Sometimes the sun can play tricks on what we see. In this case the petals appear to be silver like. Or, was this a moonlit tulip during a wintery cold but clear full moon?
It’s 1 February!! Where has January slipped to? However, with the sun shining I look out of my window and find I have crocuses trying to stretch their necks whilst the daffodils are starting to get ready for their show!
Meanwhile, here is another ACEO in my Tulip series ….
After a cold winter what can be more joyous than the sight of spring flowers erupting in your garden? The winds might still blow but these hardy tulips are made of stern stuff!
Here we have number two in my Tulip series. With a delicate pinky red hue you can actually imagine those cold winds whipping through the petals.
Well, I have gone and done it! Yes, I have listed as for sale this painting entitled Autumn Fungi in my Artfire shop.
I decided to include the picture showing how I got my inspiration for this subject matter.
Inspiration!
Result!
Since, like so many others, I am getting tired of the cold of winter I thought I would turn my attentions to the garden. Amazingly, several of my plants are showing signs of life. Many have buds and my Mountain Ash (Rowan Tree) even has a couple of leaves starting to unfurl!
This brings me nicely to my latest ACEO entitled ‘Mauve Tulip’ series. I thought I might do a series so do watch out for the next instalment!
Scientists talk about sending man to the moon but supposing there is some form of life as we know it already?
Imagine, giants and ghosts living in their very own castles in a lunar landscape? I am sure some of our well known giants from fairy tales of long ago would fit into this description!
I listed this ACEO in my Etsy shop entitled Lunar Castles.
