In honour of the Lionsgate activity I have painted this lion in oils on a 40×30 cm canvas. Keep the lion in your heart aware and hear him roar when you need to release and return to your peace.

Both painted in mixed media – acrylic under and oil over – on canvas.
I have had no time this year to do anything very much with my art practice, so getting around to making these two was a challenge and a joy! My intention is to create more time for art in my life – it is my inspiration and motivation – and oils are my medium of choice! With luck all hinderances will dissolve in the near future.
I hope you enjoy seeing the pictures above and I look forward to hearing your views. Happy days!
I am so enjoying painting the variety of dogs there are that I seem to have moved away from my favourite subject of big cats (lions, tigers, etc), Do not fret though, I am sure my love of the wild animals will bring me back to the gorgeous big cats again before too long – just have to get the dogs out of my system first!
Both painted in oils, one on 25×30 canvas, and the other on 21×27.9 canvas! (Why do they have such odd sizes?!) I hope you enjoy them.


I so enjoyed painting the last two pictures that I thought I would carry on with the dog theme! These two speak for themselves! Both are mixed media on 30 x 25 cm canvasses.


Completed this week, these two pictures of dogs. Both pictures were created in mixed media (acrylic, watercolour pens, and oils). The two dogs together are on a 40×40 cm canvas and the Border Collie on a 30×30 canvas. I enjoyed them both in different ways and I hope you do too! It is always a joy to see someone happy!
