Creativity Scrapbook

This is not really a diary, but rather and accumulation of art, whether it be painting, poetry, sewing, photography or any other creative endeavour of mine... though it may occasionally contain some stuff I've been thinking... If you are interested in buying an original or a print or commissioning art, feel free to contact me.

African boy

I painted this from a photo I took in Kenya. It is done with chalk pastels, which is a medium that is a whole lot of fun. The original is still for sale for $300. The size of the painting is 12x19'' (framed it is 470mm x 655mm)

Red Rose

This is probably one of my favourite oil paintings. It was painted with oils on stretched canvas under Graham's tuition. I wanted to paint it for a friend and planned for months, and looked for roses to use as reference, finally finding one last year! I can get stretched canvas prints of this painting when people are keen...original size is 18x18 inches.

Tiger

I painted this tiger at the end of last year. It is one of my favourite paintings, and the painting that made me decide that I really enjoy watercolour as a medium. It was originally painted on A3 watercolour paper.

The original has sold, but I am selling A3 prints of it for $25 NZ (not including postage) in order to fundraise for more oil painting tuition.
