    Shearing Shed

    The EDM, mentioned in the last post, came to an end halfway through May due to this big commission. It took several weeks to complete, but it seems that the client was happy with the depiction of his shearing shed.

  • The Buffalo Visit.

    The Buffalo Visit.

    On the 20th February, we were surprised to find a pair of Buffalo wandering through our veld ! They had escaped from a neighbouring Game Farm. So we followed them while they were in the road, and I managed to get some marvellous photographs. Naturally I was immediately inspired; one seldom has such a perfect pair of models to paint ! So over the past month I have done three studies in three different ways :Watercolour, Oil, and Pen & Wash.
