    Photographing our sheep through all the seasons & years of living on a sheep farm continually inspires me to paint them.

    ‘Sheep may safely graze’, is the theme, and though we may rest safely in the care of our precious Lord Jesus, the sheep depicted here, on the farms in our district are never safe from the threat of predators.

  • For the Love of Fragrant Roses

    For the Love of Fragrant Roses

    The Warthogs that visited our garden recently, were frustrated by the electric fence that protects my precious roses. I am passionate about old fashioned fragrant roses, and they have inspired not only this big painting in my kitchen, but a new one that has just been completed for the September Exhibition.
