“Spellbound” is part of the Winter and Portrait Collection…the painting captures the feeling of submitting ones own will to the tyrannical demands of the storm….my portrayal is one of a goddess of winter…with the red berries in her hair, she embodies its stillness, its sense of silence, darkness, and bitter cold..the falling snow is a “poem of the air,” wrote Longfellow, where the “troubled sky reveals the grief it feels.” / Winter is a time to concentrate on renewing and affirming human relationships. Watercolour on Arches Not Paper… VIEW THE ENTIRE WINTER COLLECTION HERE The night is darkening round me, / The wild winds coldly blow; / But a tyrant spell has bound me / And I cannot, cannot go. The giant trees are bending / Their bare boughs weighed with snow. / And the storm is fast descending, / And yet I cannot go. Clouds beyond clouds above me, / Wastes beyond wastes below; / But nothing dear can move me; / I will not, cannot go...E. Bronte / Forever Autumn VIEW THE ENTIRE PORTRAIT COLLECTION HERE

I was driving from Brisbane to Kingaroy a couple of months ago & came across this giant of a tree beside these stock yards. Not sure of the exact name of this eucalypt but it deserved a photo due to its sheer height. Near Blackbutt, SE Queensland, Australia
Seventh Wonder Here are 7 wonders of the Isle Of Wight: 1. Cowes you cannot milk / 2. Freshwater where you find salt water / 3. Lake where you won’t get your feet wet / 4. Newport you cannot bottle / 5. Newtown which is really quite old / 6. Ryde where you don’t have to / 7. The Needles you cannot thread The idea for the Wonders of the Isle of Wight was originated by W. J. Nigh, a Ventnor postcard maker over 100 years ago. Shot of The Needles taken from the National Trust owned ‘Needles Old Battery’. Date: 27th October 2009
