Three New Small Format Oils.




In the last few weeks I've gone back to painting in Oils for the first time in many years. I gave it away because smell from the turps and oils tended to give me asthma. I am now absolutely delighted to have found Genesis Oils, which are non-toxic and there is no smell whatsoever. Have been having a bit of fun on three little 7"x5" paintings on canvas board. I really enjoy painting small, more so than painting large.

Our Art Group has an Exhibition this weekend in the Auburn RSL Hall in Auburn, South Australia. I was down there on Friday when the paintings were being hung, but just stayed long enough to drop mine off. I go back tomorrow to spend the day there, and help dismantle at the end of the day. It's lovely for our Group to have our own Exhibition, and being a Holiday Weekend is a good time to have it.

This week I have been busy penning a Giraffe, and will post it as soon as I have it finished, which should be in a day or so.

These are my three little Oils.
