“The body is like a November birch facing the full moon
And reaching into the cold heavens.
In these trees there is no ambition, no sodden body, no leaves,
Nothing but bare trunks climbing like cold fire!
My last walk in the trees has come. At dawn
I must return to the trapped fields,
To the obedient earth.
The trees shall be reaching all the winter.
It is a joy to walk in the bare woods.
The moonlight is not broken by the heavy leaves.
The leaves are down, and touching the soaked earth,
Giving off the odors that partridges love."…Robert Bly
A walk in the woods in November…the last leaves drift gently down as the sun sinks slowly in the distance..painted in Watercolour on Arches Not Paper
I paint in many different styles and feature a myriad of subject matter, which I show as individual collections….
I am inspired by the world interpreting it in brilliant colours, often influenced by the writings of famous authors and poets..

Gorgeous Janis – love the combination of the winter trees and the warm colours! Have you published your new books yet?
Thank you so much Pauline….I am really happy you like it..

The sun has finally started coming out again, though it is actually very cold. Was very beautiful outside just now though; sun was shining while it was raining – it was even so beautiful it was distracting. Seeing the way the colours are raining in your painting; it is like what I just saw outside. Very nice Janis.
Thank you so much MuiLing…yes it is very cold…tried to garden today, but had to run in to get warm…
