John has sent this delightful painting of his wife on their boat during a holiday in Cornwall. He says " About 10 years ago Anne and I had a happy few days exploring the Helford. Porth Navas is a pretty little drying harbour with this visitors pontoon". The painting is taken from a photograph and completed in watercolour. John says it took him a long time to complete but I think that one of the pleasures of painting is to be able to create lovely paintings of past happy times from photographs.

George has sent me his "homework for this month". He doesn't tell me any more about this stunning painting but I am pretty sure it is in watercolour.
He does tell me that Alan's wife Meryl is still recovering from a fall down stairs but is improving and managing some short walks around the house which is a progress. As both of them have had long periods of illness I know everyone will want me to give them all our best wishes for a speedy return to good health.
Eva says 2 more lovely paintings, boats are not easy so welldone John and George's clouds, stunning. Makes me either want to try harder or give up!
ReplyDeleteBoth lovely; I especially like the sky in George's picture. And best wishes to Alan's wife for a full recovery.
ReplyDeleteI love barges, boats and anything in a watery scene. I am attempting a boat by a lake at the mo. Love the clouds in George’s painting. Well done both!
