Shop in Piper Street, Kyneton

Once again, this image is a fairly ordinary reproduction of the painting: it seems I am somewhat able to PaintShop, but am apparently less able to Photoshop.

Milk Jug with Zucchini

There once was a jug and zucchini,
For whom evenings were spent with Puccini.
Some nights choral hums,
Other times sleep for none,
And an elephant--or was that Henry Mancini?

Banana in My Left Hand

Ahem, I'm aware of how this looks, but I can attest to the fact that I didn't set out to be so crude; as a painter I certainly wouldn't risk going blind.

Still Life with Oranges and Plastic Bag

This is a very bad reproduction of a four-week class exercise.  It is somewhat of a mixed bag, especially given that resetting the still life each week was a difficult orangement.

Jaguers Lane, Parkville

Although I've painted Jaguers Lane on numerous occasions, I'm still serving my apprenticeship: it will take some time and much effort for me to become a Jaguer-meister.

Sauce Jug with Red Onion

It's so hard to keep coming up with onion puns (especially red ones): bloody Allium.

Lemon in Glass Jar

I composed a somewhat juicy caption for this picture, but I've decided to keep a lid on it.

This building of modest length is, from my flat, only a short haul.
