'Falmouth Docks' 8 x 6 inch Oil on Canvas Board

This is a loose impression of Falmouth docks I painted the other day.  I'm going to St Ives next month and hope to do one or two in this style whilst down there.
 
I've pretty much decided I'm going to have a go at a book.  Just trying to work out the formatting.  For the title I'm thinking something like 'Travels through Cornwall in Oils'.  Early days but I've got to have a go!

Babbs Mill Lake, Kingshurst 8 x 6 inch Oil on Canvas Board

Another one of Babbs Mill Lake near where I live.
 
Before I forget, my sister and her husband have a new motoring directory website.  For all your motoring needs visit http://www.st1ng.com
 
Back to the painting and Babbs Mill is currently my favourite painting subject.  Once I've gained the courage I may even paint there plein air instead of using photos.  One of the problems I have when I'm walking around with a camera on my own is that I feel like a pervert.  I feel people looking at me thinking 'what's he doing?'  It's the same when I'm sitting in the car alone with paints.  I guess you just have to get used to it.

My dad has started work on his new automata model.  If you haven't seen the last one you can view it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E48dFbpeFNk
He's guessing approx 4 months to complete.  This time the entire mechanics will be on display at the bottom with the animation above.

South Cerney in the Cotswold Lakes 8 x 6 inches Oil on Canvas Board

I've gone for an evening scene in the Cotswolds for todays effort.  The last time I was in that neck of the woods we spent the day at the Cotswold Wildlife Park.  It's a lovely place and well worth a visit for anyone in the area.
