Soon to be Roasting on an Open fire


After painting the beans I wanted to paint another pile of something. With Christmas only a handful of weeks away I thought I would paint some chestnuts.

Jardin de Cactus


Lanzarote's famous Cactus Garden (Jardí­n de Cactus), based toward the north of the island in Guatiza, is one of the island's hottest attractions all year round. Developed under the guidance of César Manrique it showcases over 10,000 different plants.

I decided to stretch away from portraiture and work on a landscape, using a holiday snap as reference. The cactus gardens were beautiful, but then I have always been a fan of cacti.
