Like a lot
of people, I have drawn and painted since childhood and
fortunately I have not lost the love of drawing and
painting.
I
photograph all of my paintings when completed and I scan some of
these photo's into my computer and print greeting cards, book
marks, Fridge magnets and small prints.
I
like to call my paintings 'happy paintings' they are very
colourful and usually feature people and dogs,
cats, houses, boats.
I
like to tell a story when I paint, just like writing a book,
sometimes I have only a n inkling of what I am to paint, maybe a
winding road and a house catches my eye and I start to draw it and
as I draw the story
develops I may add some people or some cars, maybe more houses,
shops, etc.
I
get a lot of inspiration for painting from sketches of fishing
boats in Fig Tree Creek at Yeppoon and
scenes of places I visited overseas.
