Reflections at the Edinburgh Castle Corner

Reflections at the Edinburgh Castle Corner
8 x 8 Inches (20 x 20cm)
Oil on Canvas


I am becoming very interested in painting the light effects seen in cities. Sydney has experienced its greatest volume of summer rain in over 50 years, which has provided some great light effects in the city streets. The corner of Bathurst & Pitt Streets provides the stage for the light hitting the umbrella.

Three Cherries on a Shelf

Christmas is cherry time in Sydney.
We had a box of very fresh & tasty cherries, and they looked so nice they just had to be painted.

The models were so tempting that they only lasted seconds after the painting was completed.
