Latest works...Mosaic and Mountains.

I'm working on a bird bath mosaic, and it's almost finished...

When we first moved to Canberra, artistically I was a bit lost. I was trying not to get inspired by the surrounding landscape, but I can't help it! This is Mount Ainslie, from the National Gallery of Australia.

Mount Majura.

Another view of Mount Ainslie...

Canberra Landscapes, July/August

So we moved to the other side of the planet, and we've set up house in Canberra, Australia. While we are waiting for our boxes, I've been working in a very small 'Moleskine' watercolour sketchbook.

I'm interested in working with the colours and shapes in the winter landscape. I've been using waterclour and my favorite neocolor 2 crayons.
