Hearts Landscapes: November 2013
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Thursday, November 28, 2013. On a final note I just want to mention that men can be victims of domestic violence too. It's horrible and life changing and if you are in Australia you can reach out for support at Mensline Australia. For the cost of a local call. Calls are confidential and they provide a truly wonderful service and advice. If you or someone you know needs help please SEEK it. There is help out there and you don't need to live like this. Stay well and happy! Welco...

Hearts Landscapes: Portrait update for Viv!
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2014/08/portrait-update-for-viv.html
Journeying Through My Life. Sunday, August 10, 2014. Portrait update for Viv! This is how my portrait progressed on Thursday afternoon. Here the jawline has been reworked as has the mouth. I've also started to fiddle with the skin tones, trying to make them more real to life. Remember you can click on the images to enlarge them. For the next paint through. Rework right eye (her left). Start to resolve her wrap and hand - gulp. The hand gives me mild heebie jeebies. Evolution of an artwork. The Dalai Lama...

http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Thursday, August 27, 2015. Thanks to Don and his snazzy little camera (and superior photographic skill)! Click to enlarge. :). Evolution of an art work. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Here are some pages from my journal. Here is a small copy of my reference photo (this painting is for study purposes and not for sale so it is not my own photograph, just one I found in google images that appealed to me). Here I've recorded a few notes about elephants. Evolution of an artwork. Friday,...

Hearts Landscapes: January 2014
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Wednesday, January 22, 2014. Progress of the Pears. I had expected to be finished with this painting - it is only small. But I find myself unable to stand for long at the easel before fatigue sets in so.I'm close but not finished. Instead of pushing myself this afternoon I've laid down brushes and will take a break. Here are some progress photos. I started today's session by working on the tonal values that had were rather wishy washy when I finished painting last. Started us ...

Hearts Landscapes: December 2013

Journeying Through My Life. Monday, December 30, 2013. When You Least Expect It. You sell a painting. Saturday, December 28, 2013. The Days Around Christmas 2014. We've been dressing up. The two pirates were shy and were not to be photographed as that would show people where the treasure was. If you look carefully you can see one pirate in the background of the bottom photo. Poppy and the boys. Chalk love letters to family. So very sweet. I hope you are all having a safe and happy holiday period and that...

Hearts Landscapes: October 2013
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Friday, October 25, 2013. I've been very busy of late. Very, very busy and this week I've spent much of my time in bed having long afternoon naps. I had not been able to upload images to blogger for awhile so have a backlog. It's a bit of a hodgepodge and I'll go into more detail in later posts. Are you ready for a peak? Some of the things that have been filling up my days and nights of late. An unexpected visitor on the back door. Happy birthday Miss R. We love you! On Monday...

Hearts Landscapes: February 2014
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Friday, February 28, 2014. To our dear sweet girl Jessica who has enriched our lives beyond anything we could have imagined. Wherever I am, she is. Close by, catching the afternoon light in the studio as I sit and draw. Pool loving, mango thieving (80 this year - she has a midden in the orchard), sock eating, ball loving, cancer sniffing, care taking, mail collecting, compost eating sweetheart. Beautiful, beautiful girl, you are a delight. Labels: home and hearth. E-course....

Hearts Landscapes: March 2014
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Sunday, March 30, 2014. Looking back at some of my art from the past three years. Remember, you can click on the images to enlarge them! Having fun with blind contour drawings. A touch of whimsy. Realism and hard-edge styles. Thursday, March 27, 2014. Knitting and nattering and general busyness. The ripple blanket I showed you in my last knit n natter post has grown, even with a brief hiatus while more wool was ordered. Here are a couple of finished pieces. Aaaah Pretty, prett...

Hearts Landscapes: April 2014
http://heartslandscapes.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Journeying Through My Life. Tuesday, April 8, 2014. The view from knit'n'natter last week. More intuitive paintings that I think I forgot to share with you and am too lazy to go back through my posts to check. Miniature paintings of farm animals. Around 10cm x10cm on canvas. Lots of fun. I prefer the sheep. Think I'll go back and fiddle with the cow even though I've signed it. More to come of these. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. It Was Me All Along - Andie Mitchell. Dancing on a B...

Journeying Through My Life. Friday, August 15, 2014. Open Studio weekend cancelled and garden plantings. Just a quick note to let you know that our Open Studio event scheduled for this weekend has been cancelled.

Business attended to we shall now see what has been going on here at home. August 21, 2014 at 12:45 PM. The Dala...
