Time to head Down Under

After a great year here in France, its only a week now to get the house packed up before we return to Sydney for 3 months. It will certainly be a different time, being back in the city after a small town in the French countryside; back to driving on the other side of the road, and reacquainting myself with the old cafe society way of life!

I'm very much looking forward to seeing all my family and friends again, will be preparing for my March exhibition, and hopefully introducing Peter to the joys of Sydney, as well as squeezing in a week or so in NZ.

I'm absolutely hope to be able to continue the Paintings each week - perhaps even really stretch myself, and capture some Sydney landscapes?!

Sète is a bustling port about 20 minutes away from us. It sits at the foot of Mont St Clair with the Mediterranean on one side and the Etang de Thau (an enclosed salt water lake) on the other. It is France's largest Mediterranean fishing port and well known for its many canals and multitude of seafood restaurants.

Greek Dreams

Price mounted: A$60 (Plus $A10 postage and handling)

This painting is a sharp contrast to last week's! In the midst of a cold French winter, and the rare event of snow in the area, I wonder why my mind keeps drifting to the brilliant blue skies and warm water of Greece?!

Les Pyrenees
Acrylic & Ink Painting
Size: 18 x 12cm Mounted Size: 30 x 24cm
Price mounted: A$60 (Plus $A10 postage and handling)

It seems appropriate to paint at least one 'winter scene' at this time of the year.
I took the photo whilst driving to Andorra just before Xmas. The whole landscape was white with contrasting browns and greys, so a little different from my usual colour palette!
