Pastel painting of "Pippa" at 3 months of age.
Pippa is a Jack Russell/Fox Terrier, who is now 18months old.  She's a tiny little pocket rocket, never still, and can jump all gates and fences at anytime!  Have spent lots of time chasing her around our paddocks, trying to get her back into where she is meant to be!  A bit of a handful, but so cute with it!

A bridge over the Arrow River at Arrowtown New Zealand.
The beautiful, peaceful place, has a circular Walking Track, on both sides of the river. 
In the middle of Summer at peak holiday time, the track is very busy with people walking dogs, riding bikes, running pushing babies in push-chairs - a truly lovely, tranquil place to be.

"Morning Glory" blue flower

This was painted for the Wet Canvas Floral Forum's September Plant Parade

"Morning Glory" flower  -  20cm x 20cm  -   PanPastels, soft Pastels & pastel pencils on pale gold, Mi-Teintes paper

I wanted to leave the colour of the Mi-Teintes paper showing through, as it was a nice complementary color to the vivid blue Morning Glory flowers.
