Why do I paint?
A lot of people ask this question...why do artists paint? Some have the feeling they ‘must’, some do it for relaxation, others just because they enjoy it. Why do I paint, I wondered.....of course because I enjoy it, and t o add a little bit of beauty to our lives and make it more tangible than just the fleeting moments it usually appears in.

The Veil
The Veil, oil on linen, 70x60cm A very big work for my standards, but such fun to do. Got the frame ready, just need it to sit for a bit and to dry... This one piece of lace is providing me with quite a few paintings! More to come!
