WALES - Mumbles lighthouse & Caer Caradoc
I have such fond memories of this scene near my home town of Neath in South Wales - I'll be back there soon.
- my memory of Caer Caradoc near Shrewsbury using my PC's "paint" programme and my mouse as the pen.

Sheffield - Lyceum Theatre
Spent most of today painting some hippos in a pool - not a great success - so this is one I did earlier. I shan't give up though.

QE 2
This is one of my oldest paintings I still have in my possession. 30th birthday this year. Always wanted to paint a large boat since someone called Alan Roberts produced an amazing one in my Primary School.
