Two little paintings

The quality of both these images is poor because I'd placed them in glazed frames before remembering that they hadn't been photographed, so they went onto the scanner, frames and all!

The first is entitled 'Portscatho Garden', inspired by a photo taken when I visited the first 'Homespun' Fair held in the village of Portscatho last August. It's rendered in oil on primed board and measures just 12.5 x 12 cm.  SOLD

The next was also inspired by the same photo and is called 'Portscatho View', oil on primed board, 12 x 12 cm.  SOLD
The colours are not particularly accurate either!!

Victoria Hilliard produces lovely ceramic pictures inspired by nature, including the portrayal of moths and butterflies. Would I have produced this collage if Tori were not a member of Art Space Gallery? Maybe not. Everything is 'grist to the visual mill' as far as artists are concerned. 'Floral - Pedestal' this painting just evolved. Fun, fun and more fun! 'Floral - Feel Amazing'. I love this artwork! My daughter's boyfriend bought her flowers, including old fashioned roses, which provided the inspiration for the flowers at the top of the painting and the cellophane wrapper is
