Way back in the year, our family friend Ronnie, commissioned me to do a little box canvas pen and ink painting of sheep to match the other one, of cows, which he had bought from me previously. I had said I would go and take photographs and then decide on which would make the best composition for the painting. As he wasn’t in any rush, I got a little side tracked, but did let him know a few times that I hadn’t forgotten!….Time crept on, more speedily than I would have liked and before I knew it it was September…halfway through the month was Ronnie’s birthday!!!! I decided I would make up for the time he had been waiting by giving it to him as a surprise for his birthday, that was when I had done it of course ;-/ Still I hadn’t been able to go and get any photographs…so, it would have to be an imaginary scene… I think all turned out well in the end, Ronnie was thrilled with his little 9 inch x 12 inch box canvas surprise painting and I got to splash around with some inks again 🙂

I wonder what sheep gossip about over their garden fences??? In an imaginary scene it could be almost anything – but, probably about the cost of wool these days!!! ;-/

‘Sunrise At The Barn’

This watercolour was more of a doodle than based on any actual scene. I was playing around with colours which seem to arise on a cold misty dawn. In my imagination this is how the painting played out, connecting everything together by using the same colours throughout, from the sky, the trees across the barn and down to the ground. The pathway between the barbed wire fencing I added later to give the painting more perspective. Quite pleased with my imaginary doodle!
