One of the best things about summer is eating fresh strawberries. The season is so short and abundant that the best thing to do with extras is preserve them for the cold months ahead. It seems a shame to see all the beautiful shape and colour and natural goodness get mashed and drowned in sugar but hey, come winter, it won’t seem so bad. Here they are, marching up to sacrifice themselves for our snacking pleasure . They look happy, don’t you think?
This post is the first one in the new version of my painting site. The title, Crow on Rocks, is 9×12 inches painted with oil paint on a prepared board. Thanks for your patience. I am finally set up with Daily Paintworks and will be adding smaller pieces for auction and fixed prices to that online gallery. Hope you’ll click the button to just have a look around that site. I’m pleased to see my work in the company of so many great images.
