All ready to go to London for a couple of nights with my wife, mainly to visit the Bankside Gallery. I hope to make one of my rare visits to the National Portrait Gallery, not forgetting the National Gallery of course. Visiting London is a rare opportunity to get some quite original photographs, as Samuel Johnson once said "to tire of London is to tire of life".

Today I'll show you details of the demonstration that I recently gave to an art club.
The first is a line drawing followed by a tonal sketch and finally the finished painting.

For the last few days and until the coming Wednesday my painting "Ferry Road, Orford" has been shown in the Open RWS Watercolour exhibition at the Bankside Gallery London. I was very pleased to have it chosen as one of only 150 paintings in the whole exhibition.

Well it's been a couple of days since I did my last post. On this occasion I'm using my new Sennheiser headset and it is really an excellent one. It seems a lot more sensitive than my last one and overall there seems to be fewer mistakes in receiving my dictation. I consider it has been very well worth the extra expense.

Update on me.



I thought I would post my picture here. Here is a recent painting I did as a demonstration.

It is from a photograph I took in Hastings, Sussex.
