    leaflets, tickets etc

    from the places Ive

    been to, to use in

    backgrounds

    I found the Ward Lock Guide to

    Dorset and London in an old

    book shop. Dates to 1930s

    40s. I scanned it in and worked

    on pages as backgrounds to

    paintings.

    I like the colour palettes used in these old

    transport posters - possible palettes to use

    in the future

    I also took lots of

    photos of flowersnature puts the best

    colours together (in

    photo book)

    I saw these foxgloves

    when taking my dog fora walk and decided to

    paint them as I love the

    colour and shape of this

    flower.

    Dorice the donkey- this is a

    donkey we met on a camping

    trip in the Isle of Purbeck

    Pete Dorices male

    friend. These donkeys had

    so much character and mypalette choice for these

    was some thing I have

    used before and I think the

    colours work well together.

    I also think these colours

    encapsulate the Isle ofPurbeck in my eyes.

    Cardiff Roath Park

    These are sketched from my visit to Roath Park where I became

    fascinated by a Koi carp that looked like it had a human face.

    This series of paintings of my

    aunts English Setter is inspired byartist Ron Burns but in hindsight I

    think the use of colour has an air

    of David Hockney about it. I

    think Im going to explore this

    more

    Charlie Paint wash

    on a background of

    newspaper - this is anexperimental piece

    which I think worked

    well and I think it

    sums up the character

    of the dog. He always

    has this grumpy,slightly aggressive face

    however his character

    couldnt be further

    away from this.
