This is one of the zinnias from my flower garden. It?s my first try at painting a zinnia, and the process was very enlightening. I?m trying to paint things I?m not familiar with so I?m can grow as an artist.

I?m a lover and painter of wildlife. Animals are always pure and true to who they were created to be. The fox represents resilience to me and this painting reflects and encourages the fact that each day begins anew.

Title or Location: Splash of colour, coral reef. Taken at home in plymouth.
I did this watercolour as an experiment to see what can be created with useing salt to create texture. My friend was doing a lesson for her art class and needed to see how the watercolours would react with different things. We did an Arty day together and just had fun with it. I had no idea of what I would create and it ended up looking like a coral reef. I enjoy all aspects of creativity and love experimenting with new mediums.
