There are some truly beautiful painting in this thread! I paint onto wood slices, sustainably sourced from within the UK. Here are two which I have finished this month:

Lovely work Hayley…welcome to the thread x

Lovely art! I particularly like the nuthatch one in your shop :slight_smile:

Haven’t posted on here for ages but there is some great work on here!

I like anything vintage so here is a vintage lady (aceo)

@muranomagic your work is great too! A wonderful, delicate, gentle portrait of a lady :rotating_light::heart_eyes:

today I have an aceo watercolour miniature.

Hi all, I’ve put the glossing brush away and picked a painting brush up, did this yesterday, Penmon Lighthouse, Anglesey. A3 watercolour.

today I have another aceo watercolour landscape…Perhaps I should not come on here so often…I just got a box pop up that said…“Please let others join the conversation, are you sure you’re providing adequate time for other people to share their points of view too?”…
Byeeee it is then…makes me wonder why I bother really…
Ha ha…this thread was started by me many years ago and if I didn’t keep posting it would die a death…I will go missing for a while and see if you others can keep it going…mmm

I post when I can, but it’s difficult to find time sometimes :slightly_smiling_face: When you’ve been in the studio all day, then trying to put stuff on all your social media etc. I just get so tired :weary:

heres a Lino cut I worked on. Each one has hand drawn and inked elements.

I seem to have forgotten how to post photos on here - I can do links to shop items, but that’s all now lol! I should come back on the forums more often and refresh my memory…

Hopefully this will show up ok - a set of little bunny dancer ACEOs:

I wouldn’t worry about it Brenda, you’re just better at remembering to come here and post work than the rest of us!
Sometimes I feel like I should wait until I’ve got something new to post, but here’s something I just renewed in my shop, and a local landmark in my favourite kind of weather. I love sitting on my windowsill and watching lightning (well, it’s hard to pick between that and a nice big snow storm).

My take on Frida Kahlo. A friend and fellow artist has been asking me to do my version of her for a while.

Evening all, my painting this evening, Butterfly, A4 watercolour. Hope you are all well.

That’s gorgeous! I love how free it feels :slightly_smiling_face:

I made this girl today. I gave up on working with collage for the moment, my inspiration with it fell flat because it takes so long… so I went back to drawing straight to paper. I mixed new pens with drawing ink for a variation in library, and have started to give my girls a fleshier tone!

Lovely!

I listed another old ACEO today, this one inspired by a friend who always used to call vegetarians vegesauruses.
