Kiama in the Morning Sun



At a little cove called Easts Beach, Kiama, south of Sydney.
I was painting while perched on the rocks, but had to move back as the tide came in.
We were staying in our motorhome at a 'holiday park' nearby. (BIG4 Easts Beach Holiday Park)
Very quiet and peaceful in the spring.

I've been travelling


"China Town Business"
A small store in the China Town quarter in Singapore
Watercolour 


"Clock Tower by the Shops"
Rothamburg: a 'plain air' under difficult circumstances. I had left my water container behind, and had to flood one half of the palette from a water bottle. A messy sketch, but a good memory of a very cute German town.


"Red Reflections"
Bamburg was a surprise: just a modern shopping spot, I thought, until we turned a corner and discovered a medieval town built on a confluence of waterways.



"The Canal of Gold"

And wonderful Amsterdam: just a quick water tour of the canals, before we were bussed away to our ship in Utrecht. I was sad that I had no time here to catch up with Ella Arps, from The Arps Gallery. Next time!!

Selling prints...



I've finished my output for Le Tour de France this year. Some of my best efforts from previous years are on Fine Art America, and people can order any size print, and even stretched canvas. They look great when blown up! Here is a link to a recent purchase:

Greipel's Power Sprint - Stage 21 #TDF


A powerful bunched sprint! I wonder if anyone has done the calculations for horsepower?

Porte, Quintana, Froome and Nibali.


Four of the best: Porte in black, Quintana in white, Froome (hidden) and Nibali in blue. These riders are so strong to ride the crazy high Alps, and they lived to tell the tale!

Le Tour de France: Descending the Alps



Lots of downhill action, such fun to watch (from Australia) if you sit really close to the TV. I get motion sick sometimes!! This is a smaller painting than my others, it matches last years size.

Rain on Tour


Not many rainy days this year. I love them, as the reflections and the steam make for great atmosphere. Not sure the riders are that keen, although the hot days seem so uncomfortable!
