This is a wonderful drawing of the photo of the new baby sister in the womb, by Fred, 4, who has seen the picture. I told you children can make marks with great ease, and I certainly could not have done better. He loves doing his drawings and can write his name very well. I must get his Mother to sign the Portrait. We are all very excited by this new person to our family.
I have been making lots of mess in the studio and the paintings are starting flow with not too much struggle. I work with a mirror opposite my easel so that I can turn and see the reflection of what I am doing. It gives a good perspective and can show glaring mistakes, some of which I love and keep in the finished work. There are many Vases of Flowers, landscapes and gardens moving off my palette knives and brushes. I will post them on the site soon. I have used masses of paint and am trying out a new paint and will let you know how I get on with it. Great that February is looking bright and sunny now, hooray.
