I have always wanted to paint but never really had the time until after I retired. After more than 40 years since I had done anything remotely artistic at the beginning in 2015 I thought I would see what I could do. I decided that I would try my hand at painting with acrylic paint. I figured that it would not be as messy as oils but not as wishy washy as watercolour. The first picture I painted was St John’s Church, Clay Hill, Enfield which you can see here. It is not perfect but I was encouraged by the results. Since then I have continued to paint many different styles such as landscapes, portraits, beach scenes (seascapes) and more. I always work from photographs either those that I or my family have taken or images that I have found using Google which I think are interesting or are a bit of a challenge.. I suppose that you may think that this site is a vanity project and you may be right, but the main reason for its existence is to showcase my work to family and friends. It is a bonus if others find it interesting.
