The raised roof, mixed media approx 80 x 50cm It's surprising what you get up to in a drawing class.  There is more evidence of this one on the Buildings page if you are interested!  Meanwhile (thanks to a certain amount of technical support) I've been venturing into roof / sofa-related 3D creations for the new show at An Talla Solais.  It opens this week if you are in town - details on the Public page.

This painting has to proceed between 4.30 and 5.30pm daily - when the shadows are dark enough to see, but not so dark as to drown out the canvas.  This is bad planning.

Rhue Light 1, 60 x 80cm, mixed media on board The Rhue paintings (see the Bowls page) are thanks to my summer house-sit - a combination of silvery western light and Rich's gorgeous table!  They'll be up at ATS for the next few weeks.
