Manor Road , Dorset

Swanage Dorset , i was about 12 years old & it was a holiday with my family, we stayed in a large house which belonged to my Dad's Friend. it was a lovely house with lots of rooms and outlook to a street i remember a white house with blue window frames, and the house we was in sat at the top of a steep hill , you went round the corner and you could see over the town to the sea. it was very nice. my room looked out that way ,i remember a lot of ivy had taken over a few windows and wouldn't let my sister open it in case of spiders, the back garden somewhat resembled the gate to secret garden too.
Anyways i thought i would paint the street that i remember,  the house we stayed in is on the left . with the Ivy!

Starting to Paint again and Blogging about it too

So here i am, starting to paint again  , i spent many teenage years pursuing art. at College , at a homeless outreach getting homeless people to paint too. and at home..

I'm now at home with my 2 young children and have found i can start painting.

I've always like Acrylics, but have decided to venture into Watercolour's and found i actually quite like them . my initial intention was to do miniature paintings for my other hobby Dollshousing. since getting my paints out though i've found i've been quite happy with an A4 sheet of paper .

Scanning into a computer then printing out is quite strangely satisfying ...i'm a bit odd .but this is handy having a scanner because i can add my paintings to my blog ..yay.
