We have many walkways and alleyways in my locality, which have been transformed by the onset of snow. Usually green with foliage, they now look completely different with "Fairytale" surreality.
With the sun in front of me, I took this picture of my son facing away from the camera. In hindsight I would have preferred to have taken a few more shots from different angles as I wanted to capture the winter sun shining through the trees. I also would have liked to have used a wider perspective and been further back, so that Cain appeared to be on the horizon as opposed to being up close. I failed to capture the magnitude and whiteness of the snow between him and me, perhaps focusing too much on the glint of the sun. None-the-less, I am happy with the resulting image.
My favourite style of art
I dislike stereotypical ideas and recognise that my art demonstrates this to a certain degree. I am, and always have been a non-conformist and endeavour to display my individuality through my art.
"All things bright and beautiful

One of Trevor`s favourite places to rest is on either my son or myself as we sit on the sofa. It doesn`t matter what we may be doing, be it typing on the laptop, playing on a console, anything....if he wants to lie on us, then that is exactly what he will do. This pic shows him lying on my chest as I lay on the sofa watching TV. He climbs up as close as he can get to my face and slumbers.....
When Little Man Hadley joined the family well-meaning friends and family said "He`ll get eaten alive by Trevor!" or "Trevor will kill the poor puppy"! Luckily, for Hadley, neither has happened and the two pets live in toleration of each other. They will never be best buddies and occasionally have the odd *stand-off*, but overall I am confident that neither has the wish to inflict any serious injury on each other - yet! Hadley knows Trevor is in charge and on the whole respects that. Although occasionally he gets a bit over excited and pokes his fluffy nose where it shouldn't be and receives a well-placed swipe from a paw full of claws! Ouch!
These images were sourced from some original artwork I designed for my soon-to-be delivered grand-daughter Eden.
I painted four canvasses, each with a different letter spelling her name. I then adorned the canvasses with pretty girlie things like glitter and butterflies. The artwork is now hung on the nursery wall awaiting her arrival.
I use my own art or photographs as a source for my mixed media artwork which means I have the rights over all the images produced. It also means I do not have to be concerned about upsetting another artist by putting my own interpretation on their work.
I love the simplicity and serenity of stripes.
