Pipers Creek Landscape

 

I was painting these rolling hills when a couple of cows hooved into view.

Silo, East Metcalfe

 

I'm worried that the reproduction of this silo painting might be a bit grainy.

Kyneton from Pleasant Hill Road

 

This is the fifth painting I've posted featuring Pleasant Hill Road -- you could say I rode the gravy train.

P.S. I reckon this might be a very similar scene to the one Graeme Inson painted here (http://thepictorialcollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/100_1220_Fotor_20130407.jpg) which I've been trying to find for many years.

Mount Macedon from Pleasant Hill Road, Kyneton

 

This was a quick sketch and I wasn't sure if it would amount to anything (except maybe for a mount).

Pleasant Hill Road, Kyneton

 

Pleasant Hill Road has been the subject of many of my recent paintings; it seems I just can't dispense with the pleasantries.

Small Copper Ewer with Pear

 

A pitcher might be worth a thousand words, but a ewer is worth much fewer (though certainly more than a pair).

Manna Gum, Pleasant Hill Road, Kyneton

 

I've painted a lot of manna gums: different times, different mannas.

Pleasant Hill Road, Kyneton

 

Pleasant Hill Road does indeed live up to its name; so pleasant, in fact, you could say I really took to the hill.

Still Life with Porcelain Jug and Apple

 

This is a painting done as a demo for Emilio Longo's Skill-Based Art: A Learning Resource for Art Students & Artist-Teachers™  (https://skillbasedart.weebly.com/).  The demo should be on the website early in the new year.

There will also be an interview with yours truly, though I'm embarrassed to say I spoke for almost three hours in a tedious ramble about myself.

Benjamin Disraeli is alleged to have said "Talk to a man about himself and he will listen for hours"; in my case it seems if one asks a man about himself he will talk for hours (literally).
