These are some others I did when I stayed with Stephie in London.

We picked up some leaves and used them as example to paint from live.

Done without drawing.

This is one of the paintings I did during my stay. The spooky cat, or Rosie.

It has been a while since I posted, because lots has happened.

I start to tell you about my wonderful stay in London with my friend Stephie. From 8 November till 14 November.

We painted almost all week together, except for one day. That day we went to the exhibition in Tate Britain, called "Turner and the Masters".

A unique exhibition, which showed paintings of Turner with next to it a painting of the original of another master. It was a great experience to see who influenced Turner during his life.

The photo was taken by Stephie.

My special thanks for J. Oosterhaven for making this exhibition possible.

My brother asked me months ago for a portrait of his wife. I took pictures of her regularly until I had a photo that was good enough to paint from. Natural light on her face that is much better then flashlight. My brother and sister in law were very pleased with it.

Sunflowers

When I came back from my Holiday in Germany, my first client for Shiatsu massage brought me a great bunch of sunflowers, so when he was gone I started painting right away.

I started this with a background and from there on I formed the flowers, I think I call it Orange blush.
