Cousin Philip began to give music lessons in his music studio in the north wing. Oddly enough, all of his students were women. Most were blonde. Even the servants were beginning to talk! Verse 4 of The Haunted Chateau.

Pastels, charcoal, feathers, Photoshop on canvas textured paper / My song…. The Show (lenka) / This is where I began with my paintings .. 8 years ago, this is how they used to look … with a little enhancement in photoshop to add some little extras for fun. I hope you like it. To show where I’ve come from, just doing ‘dots’ and ‘strokes’ and ‘criss-crosses’ for eyes, to the eyes I’m doing today. My story – well…one day, a lady purchased a painting from me called Seashore Sally but she only had ‘dots’ for eyes and no other features, no nose, no lips (I didn’t know how to paint or draw them). The lady got in touch with her sister, a mutual friend, and asked through her, if i would try to add real eyes and a face. I was very anxious and nervous about doing a face over the top, as the lady had paid for the painting, but i agreed to try… this is when i began to progress and learn to draw eyes, noses and lips…and i’m still working hard on getting that right and improving .. i still struggle with lips and noses and eyes, but each time I am rewarded as I learn something new and keep on developing my style / i generally progressed from this, and prior to that, i drew some still lifes, such as a ceiling fan, a cluster of frangipanis and a few portraits of say John Lennon, and some ethnic families from National Geographic, so i began practicing and honing my skills using real subjects, prior to developing a style of my own, it was important to know i could draw first, and really draw accurately. from that to this /
