Rhondda Valley?

How black was my Valley? Stitched 5 copies of my last painting together and this was the result - reminds me (from my memory as a youth) of terraced houses across one of the coal mining valleys of South Wales.

Wales, Vale of Neath

Lower Ddwli waterfall, Vale of Neath - don't all rush there - it'll spoil it! (If you can pronounce it without spitting your'e a better man than I)

Wales, Aberdulais, Neath

Vale of Neath (my hometown) - Aberdulais Tin-Plate Works from an old photograph - I've added the colour using my artistic licence (again).

Wales - Elan Valley

Bridge over the Afon (River) Elan with the pump house on top of the Dam to the Penygarreg Reservoir in the background.

South Wales - Vale of Neath

Sgwd Isaf Clungwyn - my favourite waterfall - this time pen and watercolour on canvas. Practising a new technique!

WALES - Harlech Castle

From my castle series (mainly Welsh)

WALES - Vale of Neath - waterfall

Scwd Ddwli (or is it Scwd Einon Gam) - one of the beautiful waterfalls at the head of the Vale of Neath (my birth town). Photo of one I painted many, many years ago. Don't all go at once - it might spoil the peace and solitude! (Neath Tourist Board - supporter)

Self-Portrait in profiterole sauce

My favourite dessert after the dessert... extreme sauce sketching!
Had a lovely meal last Friday night at Glyn Clydach near Neath in my beloved South Wales. Can you see what it is yet?

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.

WALES - Tenby

Pembrokeshire - Little England beyond my beloved Wales - so we were told (it is gorgeous though)
