Smaller Images

Alhambra from San Nicolas

This a watercolour of the Alhambra from San Nicolas painted in March 2011. It is the first in a range of smaller images of Granada which I will reproduce as more ecomomical prints which will be easier for tourists to carry on travel.

The image size is 250mm x 180mm.

The original is for sale for 150 euros but limited edition signed prints on Arches Aquarelle paper are available for only 20 euros.

Pastel Portraits

Nude in Pastel


Maria

I think pastel is a lovely medium for portraiture. Here are some examples. I painted the nude this week. I painted he portrait of the little Spanish girl, Maria, because I wanted to paint a young girl with dark hair and big brown eyes typical of Andalucia. As you can see, my granddaughters, whom I painted when they visited last Spring, have blue eyes.
If you click on the images they will enlarge.
I am prepared to undertake commissions.
