I loved painting the creases in this tablecloth 😍 The lace however 😵‍💫

Only two days to go!

I've been painting a lot of oranges recently and I'm now convinced it's all because of awesome Buxton Fringe advertising throughout the town - painting the town orange 🍊 😀 🧡

This teapot has been a delight to paint, so much so, I haven't got anything else done all week 😳

Raspberry jam painting 😋

I thoroughly enjoyed painting this trompe l'oeil for a dear friend, who retired from her whole career in education last week. Enjoy retirement Mrs A x

Please allow me this proud mum moment 🙏 My eldest daughter has secured the A level grades she needs to study biomedical science at Sheffield University and I could not be prouder. I love you and I'll miss you so much Milly x

My favourite part of painting a portrait is getting to know my sitter. This remarkable lady is an inspiration. It's amazing what you learn when you take the time to listen.

I love painting subjects that I've found. These Damsons were a delight! 😍

I'm still fighting to make the most of the Damson season 💪🎨

⚠️😡Make no mistake, we are angry. This Government has today launched an attack on nature. We don’t use the words that follow lightly. We are entering uncharted territory. Please read this thread. 1/13

This little painting is on the way to the Cotswold Contemporary Gallery. The team have now opened another gallery in Cheltenham and are currently working hard towards a new venue in Burford, great news for the Arts 🥳

I kept thinking about da Vinci's Last Supper painting whilst completing this one 🤭

This little painting is off to the Cotswold Contemporary Gallery, along with six new pieces. Ready to arrive for their new gallery opening in beautiful Burford 🥳

A miniature pineapple painting 🍍

A concern to no-one I'm sure, but this will be my final tweet, unless Twitter changes dramatically. For a 'lefty' artist I don't like the direction it's going in. Spread love, not hate ❤️
