Herschel 

This is a portrait of Herschel, one of my stuffies. He is a very laid-back monkey who likes jazz and good whiskey... or bad whiskey, rum, vodka, gin, etc. At least he doesn't smoke.

#9 in the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge


An English Garden Gate

This ia a 5 by 7 inch (12.7 X 17.8 cm) acrylic painting on gesso board. The subject was a photo of a gate in a the Slimbridge wetland preserve on the estuary of the River Severn in England. I actually took the photo in the Autumn and but, as I painted, it became Spring all by itself. t's strange how these things happen.

I also came to the conclusion that I'd rather paint with oils than acrylic but, with a few more painting, that might change.

An English Garden Gate - $65.00. Available in my Etsy Shop.
