St. James Park, London
This is from a photo I took recently in St. James Park in Central London. I’m really liking using acrylic on watercolor paper. Since we are getting ready to move, I’ve packed away most of my other mediums and turned to acrylic and watercolor paper because the paints dry fast and paintings on paper don’t take up much space. I’m starting to even prefer acrylic paints on paper over gouache.
Japanese Garden, Kew Gardens, London
I am experimenting with starting with loose pastels, then spraying with a fixative before painting over with acrylics. I went in at the end with a little more pastels. This is of the Japanese Gardens at Kew Gardens, London.

The Grazing Goat
The Grazing Goat 16x20in. Oil on panel. This is the cafe on the ground floor of the hotel Beth and I stayed at in central London. It was a really nice hotel a couple blocks from the Marble Arch, and an easy walk to all the main sights in central London
