Thanks Jenny , I think this started just before Christmas and sadly developed . Still it a new year and I’m feeling well enough to do some painting even if it’s in short bursts so that’s a positive. I do like her work in general but it doesn’t excite me nor do the prints but I find them far more viewable, possibly because I like Chinese and Japanese artwork.

A bit of a change unfortunately as there are two artist listed as Gerrard George Lants both born in 1927 one died in 1958 and the other died in 1998 . I have gone with the longer living of the two.  G G Lants born in Australia and was a well listed artist and  student at the National Gallery Art School Melbourne. He was known for his period style watercolour and paintings in oil. I have done my best to ensure that I attribute the paintings to the correct artist , a bit difficult as there is some overlap on google.  I hope you enjoy the artwork.
With Sarah, Phil, Ellen, Rose the dentist, and the granddaughter whose name I forget.

I should describe his work as irreverent and cheerful - rather like Australia itself.  I know I owe you a piece on Anne Toms, Dixie - but I'm not so good at just picking meself up and dusting meself down these days as I used to be.  Also, as Anne is still alive and working, I'd rather like to have a word with her before doing this: she may have views on what she'd like, or not like, to be shown.  Anyone really keen on seeing her work can of course Google her - she's out there: somewhere.

Paul, do you have a list you could post of those artists still to feature and in what order they’re likely to appear?  Think most of us have probably lost track of it all by now!

I have just sorted the list  out Jenny as I needed to make several changes due to holding back on several artists and remove a few. . I will type it up and post it a bit later today.  Whilst on the subject any more names for the list would be most welcome .

Just keep suggesting them Jenny if needs be I will spread them out. I feel the same as I often post artists but as long as people enjoy them I think it’s ok. I must admit thst I do like to have other people having a go and sharing their choice.  Four artists I’ve not come across before Jenny their work look superb, just had a sneak preview. Norman T I have know before  love his horses , who doesn’t .

Hope you’re feeling a lot better Paul. We just about have to do the job ourselves at the moment!
