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.

Snow Fleas

There's this small beastie called a snow flea ...

Ink and watercolor on 60lb. paper. Approximately 4"x6". This will likely be our holiday card this year, and I'll put prints up for sale next year. (Or then again, maybe sooner.)

p.s. Snow Fleas are actually a type of Springtail, and do not make you itch.
