These are great, Selchie! I have to admit to squinting at the first oil painting to decide if it was a painting, photograph or real life. I still can?t tell. You certainly have talent. I, once, decided I would get into painting, but very quickly undecided again. Now I stick to smaller projects involving decoupage, glass painting and messing about with card and paper. You already have a weatherboard type house, I see, so you?ll fit right in when you get to NZ. I?ve put a few of my crafty bits in a new topic, but they don?t compare to your genuine talent. Still, it keeps me off the street.
