The red umbrella hanging on the wall was the inspiration for this painting.

Manilla envelope

This is exploring the same forms as my last painting but varying the composition.

Lambert Park No 3

Oil on canvas 30 x 25cm

This was painted plain air in Lambert Park on a day that was sunny but with an icy wind: good encouragement to get on with things, not fiddle or waste a minute!

Pink shopping trolley

Oil on board 23 x 30cm

This was painted in Lambert Park.  One of the painters left her shopping trolley right in my line of view.  With the sun shining it glowed a bright pink which added a nice touch of colour that I couldn't resist.

Still life with two mugs

Oil on canvas

These were a few things scattered on top of the cupboard.

I liked their random arrangement (with just a little tinkering by me).
