Title: Cobbled Cherries [Watercolour on 140lb Bockingford, 26x18cm]



A painting of Town Hall Square in Leicester, before the city fathers decided that the raised cobbles were an insurance liability and relaid them level and in straight lines!

Title: The Old Drapers Shop [Watercolour, 140lb Bockingfors paper, 33x23cm]

Studio painting worked from a reference sketch taken from life in Fishguard, this must surely be the last image of this shop, as it was converted to an estate agency two weeks later! I recently discovered a similar victorian shop, still intact but close to dereliction, in the centre of Leicester. Surely another painting waiting to be done!

A plein air study from Sealyham Woods, Pembrokeshire, still awaiting being worked up into a full size studio painting.

The title says it all really....referenced from a photograph taken whilst we were putting away the whisky on a Christmas Eve

Title: The Wheel [graphite on cartridge paper, 29x20cm]

Just a pencil study of what i considered a busy subject, done whilst living in a cottage adjacent to the pottery in Pembrokeshire.







Title: Cryin' The Blues [Watercolour on 140lb Bockingford paper. 32x22cm]

The third from the series of paintings inspired by blues and jazz music. Juried and exhibited at West Wales Open Art Exhibition, 1986.
