On a roll

Oil on canvas
This was basically white on white: a roll of paper, print making rollers on paper in front of a white wall, with the light creating a beautiful blue, aqua and pinkish shadows.

Pepper's Creek, Rockley

Oil on canvas 30cm x 40cm
Peppers Creek runs by a delightful little historic town by the name of Rockley.
The town is located 232 kms. west of Sydney across the Blue Mountains, 23 kms south of Bathurst.
I visited this place whilst doing a landscape workshop held by local artist, Tim Miller.  So, although this painting was done only recently, I remember the tranquillity and peacefulness of this area which seems to be largely untouched by time.

Still life with blue cup and saucer

Oil on cedar board  30 x 13.5cm
I bought this blue cup and saucer at the Rozelle markets and I think it is going to be a frequent feature in my paintings.

Model One

Oil on canvas  13.5 x 23 cm
I love listening to music while I paint.  So today I painted the radio in a small composition.
