I spent part of Easter painting. In fact I spent Easter in frantic activity, to take my mind off the fact that our beautiful dog, Meg, was diagnosed with Stage V Lymphatic Cancer on Friday. We start chemotherapy this Friday – so fingers crossed, and prayers appreciated.
The self portrait is more about how I feel, than how I look. It’s done in watercolour with oil pastels over the top. Tony said my eyes look hooded – which is exactly how they feel after nights without sleep…
The other painting is one of the many moon ones – this is one I have entered in the hope of it being selected for showing at the Peters Doig Marlborough Art Awards in May.
