I have been drawing the pictures that hang on people’s walls.
This one is based on a photo sent to me by L. G., with the explanation you can read below:
Four photos of my family amongst a collection of landscapes.
Top left: a blissful childhood holiday to North Wales. Below: me on a swing. Next: the family around 1980 and finally all the cousins and offspring, the only time we have ever all been together. The babe in arms has just graduated with a degree in Politics.
Nothing funny or witty to report. Apart from my evident experimenting with mount board proportions when I framed some of them myself at evening class.

Unlike others I’ve done this week, I started this on paper with pencil and ink, then added digital effects (the reflection of light in the glazed frame on the bottom right). I sent the finished version to L. G., who replied:
I LOVE IT.
Wow.
Thank you. That’s incredible. What an amazing thing to do. So much to learn from the way you’ve tackled it.
Thank you thank you.
Yes please to buying a print from you.Overwhelmed!
