Continuing the Tenby theme!
Hills distant and sun-spattered, buildings shout their vibrancy, steps clamber ever up, seas roll and churn with life.
This is
'Angles of Tenby' by Julia Hawker.

Following the sneak preview of 'Tenby Harbour', here is the completed painting. I really hope that you like it. The whole area is so beautiful it's breathtaking and this is the first of several paintings I have planned. We visited wonderful friends there last summer and experienced Tenby in its glorious pastel loveliness.

A shy-looking girl but with a vibrant costume. This actually reflects her personality but all of us have quiet, thoughtful times. This is the focus of 'Secret Thoughts', based on a beautiful embroidery by Terri Mitchell. What do you think?

And here it is, finished at last, my latest painting, called 'Swim To Greet the Sun'. I do hope you like it. I think it's the most colourful one I've painted. The sun beams down on the silent town; only the underwater creatures seem to notice the golden rays piercing the surface of the sea. They swarm towards the light to find ... ?
It was bought after being spotted, very much incomplete, on Facebook. On Sunday, Phil and I had the great pleasure of delivering it to its new owner. Luckily, she loved it!
Thank you to everyone who suggested titles: they are all excellent ideas and could well appear in future work - keep your eyes peeled!
Prints of the painting will soon be available on the site.

Calmly, gently and without any worries in their underwater world, these little golden fish swim by. I composed these relaxing 3D pictures using indelible pen, gorgeously bright watercolour dyes and a touch of gold acrylic. The 3D effect is enhanced beautifully in these extra deep 10" x 10" white frames. They cost £50 each and are the first two in a series of four. Watch this space for the others! Click here to go to 'Beneath the Sea' where these pictures can be seen.

I've just remembered that I haven't shared our success at the Alfriston Festival! We had a lot of visitors making kind comments - and quite a few even bought! We took just under £300 and were delighted to donate £30 (plus the Gift Aid) to the JPK Sussex Project - such a fantastic local charity raising money to build the much needed Supported Living Centre for adults with learning difficulties.
