2026
This painting was a project for the art class I teach, but although it was started in October of 2025, I was not able to finish my piece until today - January 1, 2026!
This was a pen & ink drawing to start, working from a photo by Jacqui Parsons of a Welsh village. Acrylic paint was added using a watercolour technique.
2025
Last project of 2025 - a Pen & Ink drawing with acrylic added - on watercolour paper for my art classes, that I teach. This is a great one to make into a Christmas card --- for 2026 though!
Created in time for a Special Family Christmas gift.
Starting with a pen & ink drawing outline on watercolour paper, acrylic paint was then added.
This pen & ink, with graphite, drawing was commissioned by St. John the Evangelist Anglican church, in Peterborough. This is to be used for the celebration of its 200 anniversary, in 2026.
This very delicate painting was commissioned and a neighbour, had a magnolia tree in full bloom at the time, so I was fortunate to be able to get my own photos for this painting. Because of the almost white colour of the petal edges, an outline was first done in pen & ink, then acrylic washes were added.
This is the first client project for this year - a family portrait of 3. Although this artwork started out with pen & ink drawings, by adding watercolour, the 3 faces really popped!
