OK I am First & Foremost a Writer but I do have some skills in other genres of art. (Gives me a great appreciation of those works that excel way beyond my humble offerings!)
This is one of my paintings I made a few years ago now
(about 20 lol)
It reminds me of my favourite ride told in
A yarn for you – Karimba’s Ride-
In my youth I had ridden trail horses so many times up a bush track like this (up & down Mt Olinda from Kilsyth, all around Beechworth & over the Bunyip Ridge), that when I stopped riding [& became “a responsible wife & mother” for everyone else] I missed it so much I had to paint it. This is a mixture of acrylic poster paints & left over house paint on a fine piece of old Masonite [you know the kind from the bottom of an old drawer …. cos that’s where I got it from lol]
So come for a ride with me?
Chookas! X♥X

Thats awesome, so soft and pretty, maybe one day you will find your track get on a horse again and continue the journey xx
Thank you
I haven’t many of these pictures of mine and the other ones are completely different! lol I have one here and my mother has “Stored” the others for me lol …. I may never see them again lol
But my big sister was a far better artist than I and so I never explored my possibilities … individuality was promoted in our family in stead of sharing interests.
Yep I’ll get back on a horse soon … I have another surgery this year to undergo and recover from and then just watch me – don’t blink!! lol
Thanks for looking at my art!

Lovely and soft artistry
Funny how it looks so soft on this but in effect it’s quite rugged and rough! lol The paint is all lumpy in long textured lines symbolic of the bush depths and the bark on the scratchy trees & the twigs & sticks that stick out and cane your legs! lol
Thanx for looking at my actual painted visual art! :O)

Lovely work , you should do more .
Thank you But I don’t think I’d create half as good again … I tend to go through phases and “Conquer” something then move on. These two were done half my life ago! and I have done so many other things since But you never know!
Thank you again for looking at my art!

This is great. I love the colours and the textures of the paint. You should do more painting.
Glad you like it! See I’m not just a pretty set of words lol
Thanx but no lol or maybe lol I dunno I don’t have the right space to paint here … no room to swing a cat [or any of the kittens! lol]
Who knows! lol

love this, this is a delicate piece,dawnx
Thanks Dawn it looks it doesn’t it but it’s so rough to feel … after I painted the back ground with the acrylics, I literally put the house paint on with a spatula … well an old bone handle knife anyway! lol
But I’m so glad you like it!
