Here is my painting, finally finished and hanging in my friends house. It’s colours really match the decor.. I’m so pleased I painted this it took ages but it works well. I can still paint!

A bit more
Improved the right hand side of the painting. It looked a bit bland and needed some more interesting vegetation… More work, but worth it.
Finished castle?
Criccieth Castle, Wales. Looks a bit like a whale. I hope the person who commissioned it will be happy? I had to leave off some buildings and people from the original photo. That has made the hillside a bit more difficult to paint, imagining the undergrowth.
What do you think? I hope they like the restless waves.
6.40 am
Morning sun catching my work in progress, but not much done during the last few days, it’s been too hot and humid. Just came down for a decaff coffee, not getting much sleep and my legs keep twinging.
Almost done
Painting rough sea is hard. Especially as I don’t have a good reference image to work from. The headland, beach and castle need sorting out. The ground is grassy but again the photo I’m using is not very clear. I’ll take a final picture when I’m done. Taking longer than I used to because of my Parkinsons disease. Acrylic on canvas.
