Sometimes life is hard and we cannot find our way. Like a forest full of trees we are lost in the thicket. Worries branch out in all directions gripping us tight….until we see a ray of light. Now there is hope and it all becomes clear.
Ray of Hope
There is light
where there is dark
Just use your sight
to find the mark.
There is hope
where there is fear
You will cope,
just hold faith near…
Linda Callaghan

My thoughts are with those suffering losses.
Watercolour on Arches 300 gsm with gold pen highlights. Using a limited palette with the wet on wet technique and then shaping the painting.

I paint many subjects in a range of mediums and styles from my home studio in the Blue Mountains. Especially drawn to brilliant watercolours and inks, my work has been described as ‘ethereal, spiritual and totally in tune with nature’. I am delighted to have sold many works, won awards and been published in numerous magazines. Facebook Page LindArt
