desperately trying to quit the
smokes.

the diforont materials
available to me in the local
area I have settled on two
difforont typs of acrylic

with a shiny plasticy look, so
when the paint is mixed it
makes for a quite interesting
overall finish.. I have on
ocasion toyed with varnishing
my work when I am happy with
it, but I am never sure if it

I am trying to sell my
paintings to raise enough meny

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
Whilst staying at a friends house 20 miles from home, still in the Dordogne, I was compelled to sketch the view from his living room window. Every time I leave my house I am overwhelmed by the Dordogne's beuty,
and I feel an obligation to this area's beuty. I MUST paint to calm the beast within! |
