Strange Pillow / Sleeping Mermaid

I have no idea what to call this, really! Watercolor on 4" x 6" 140 lb Strathmore coldpress.

I do feel like I've made a Step Forward with this one. I feel like I'm finally starting to be able to halfway actually do the kind of painting I see and can imagine doing. I know I still need to work larger to make it really come together.

I want some PITT pens.

Another Railway Painting

This is the painting, of a Great Western Railway pannier tank locomotive running alongside the River Dart in Devon. This is from a photograph I took of the scene about twenty years ago.

Collie Sketch

This is an A4 size mixed media and pastel sketch on pastel paper of 'Ross', a sweet natured collie who belonged to Ivor, an elderly friend of mine.
I recently sketched this for Ivor's 90th birthday, as a gift.
Thank you, Linda..

Steam Power

This is one I've just finished, another of my steam locomotive series I'm doing at the moment. It may be the last for a little while as I have to have a small operation on my brush hand this week.
