Pomegranate


Small alla prima study of a Pomegranate. I love the deep red colour of pomegranates, and they are surprisingly heavy. I've been drinking alot of pomegranate juice lately!

Horse In Monotone



I would do more paintings of horses, but finding horses to photograph is difficult.

This is a study in almost monotone, which I hadn't initially intended at first, but I decided to leave it like that as I was painting.

When it was finished, I kept thinking that something wasn't quite right but I couldn't put my finger on it. Then I realised what it was- it hasn't got any ears!

Well maybe they're somewhere in the fluffy hair.
