A great simple subject Haidee-Jo, I don't mean simple to paint! Quite superb in your now very recognisable style.

Lovely painting. I imagine the woodman (or woman) is inside enjoying a cup of tea.

They would have been a long time ago Janet, and then I'd have enjoyed painting the smoke wisping it's way out of the chimney... now I think it's just a storage shed sadly!

We finally had snow here so I rushed out to find a local subject and found this lovely old bothy in the former woodyard of the Brownlow estate. It's lovely painting snow while standing in the sun but also unfortunate because by the end of the day it had all melted away.
