Look what i found...

I have recently seriously edited my art archive and look what i found....

These are two watercolour paintings from way back in the 1980s!

The portrait is of my sister who was a patient and willing model for me during our teenage years. This captures her warm smile and glasses long since gone.

The landscape was painted on site during a class which i went to with my Dad. I think this is in Dedham, Essex and possibly the building is the Mill....

The paper copies have now gone and these images have become part of my electronic archive - much easier to store and access.

I am really comforted by the images and reminded of my long term love of the visual arts. These painting have inspired me to add watercolour paints back into my art media - and to have a go at taking more time out to create my own work.
