The Little Visitor

the little visitor 

The little Visitor- watercolour on paper

This is one of several recent paintings. I've been working intensely on them, each individual, with a variety of themes and ideas explored... There's a story to this, is she combing or pulling at, the little one's hair? I like the ambiguity (that's what I aim toward) and I hope you enjoy it too.

New original paintings and a postcard print set - coming in June.

Perhaps I will share one or two other new paintings here - in coming days.... 

Anyhow, busy busy - I've just been stitching all morning. New embroidery works are happening..... more tomorrow.
