ALCOHOL INKS!

For Christmas I received some Alcohol Inks and have been playing with them, on both ceramic tiles and Yupo paper.  They are a lot of fun and force me to paint loosely as they have a mind of their own.  I have added a number of images of the alcohol ink paintings under a new heading, “Alcohol Inks” on my main page menu.  Please visit to see what they are like. I will have a number of them for sale in the Bow West Painters spring sale on April 8th, 2017.   Here are a couple of images too:

Some Birds for a Change

I needed a break from the rocks, so I decided to paint some birds.  These were painted from photos I have taken over the last little while.
