Fairly busy week, but kept forgetting to get round to blog until I was in bed! Disastrous Sunday, we were supposed to go and see the babies, but car broke down half way to Oxford.  Perry had to nurse the thing back home!  Looks like another big bill.

Perry went off to France with my car, so I was left a little stranded. I therefore couldn't go to art club on Tuesday, but I was supposed to go to Ladies Lunch on Thursday.  I was going to go there by bus and get a taxi back.  However, looked like a nearly impossible bus journey, and I simply couldn't get a taxi to pick me up afterwards!  As it was Meryel had been unwell, so pulled out.  So I did as well!

In the meantime I've been managing to paint something everyday.  Working quite hard to get things right.  Concentration and patience are the key.

woods as Yarmouth

View from fort Victoria - bit weak as a subject

Freshwater bay - didn't quite get it right

OK - back to landscapes and lots of washes

second attempt

feel better about this one

 Right now, I'm working on another washy landscape.  Lets see what happens.  Perry should be home from France later today.
