14. ROBIN IN THE SNOW

























The original photo had snow in the background but I found it too difficult to paint so I just put in a simple blurred background. In this painting I got to know a robin ... one of nature's most beautiful creatures.

13. PEONY ROSE

























This is my first attempt at painting in an impressionistic style. I found the painting process quite challenging because I prefer 'structure' and so I had to resist the urge to give each blob a border. The original painting was done in watercolours and now oil has added a new dimension to the peony rose.
