Bye, bye Veil!
My painting ‘The Veil’ is on its way to its new home in the USA. Packed and crated, ready to go. It is always a bit nerve-wracking to ship my work so far away. All I can do is pack it really well and hope it arrives in one piece.

    I love your painting, it is so sensitive and beautifully painted. A portrait and fabric what an inspired piece. Since I share your love of fabrics I wanted to give you a source to buy lace from here in the USA. Go to my blog - www.cottagelifepaintings.blogspot.com and scroll down to the painting post on 'Nestle' to get the name of the store. You can buy online. Good luck and I will continue to watch your blog to see what beauty you paint with your new fabrics.
    Yours in art,
    Pamela

Antony Williams won the Ondaatje Prize ('best in show’) and his work is absolutely awesome. His portraits in egg-tempera are stern but endlessly subtle, technically amazing and timeless. My painting had a fantastic spot on the wall of the north gallery, surrounded by RP members’ work. I was honoured it was hanging so well.
