Sunset2


Thanks to my friend Marion for her dramatic photograph of the sky above the Isle of Mull.
My painting looks better than here on the blog.  The picture was far too wet in the painting so I'll be doing it again. Watch this space!!

Autumn Leaves








        








 The spider's touch, how exquisitely fine!
Feels at each thread, and lives along the line!

I have it in mind to do a series of sunsets in the near future. This is one painted following a recent project at my watercolour class.
A Winter Scene.

Remembrance Day

In Flanders fields the poppies grow
Between the crosses,row on row,
That mark our place.
It was a privilege to join so many people in Tesco's Rainham, observing the two minutes silence at 11.00 a.m. today.

Sunflowers

Who countest the steps of the Sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime,
Where the traveller's journey is done.

Flower Festival

A Harvest Thanksgiving and Flower Festival at the Church of St. Mary and St. Peter, Wennington.


 Welcome to our first flower festival our theme being the hymn 'We Plough the Fields and Scatter'

'The splendour  of Autumn Colours' guides you into
our beautiful church.













                                                                ' The Water of Life.'
                                                                'Shades of Autumn'
                                                             'Celebration of Marriage'
                                                      Gorgeous skies from The Isle of Mull.
 As we depart the church the new etched window, depicting Christ, can be seen clearly in the background.
I hope you enjoy this selection of pictures from our Festival.
