Children at sea
A 12 by 12 canvas was used for this painting.
I have always loved the little postcard showing these two children. So I decided to reproduce it. Unfortunately I do not know who the artist is. I have to admit that this delicate painting is surely one of my favourites. The colours used portray a calm atmosphere.
Flowers in vase 1
A 20 by 30 canvas was used for this painting.
This was the first painting I attempted. It is dated back to March 2001. It depicts a vase with various flowers. A book consisting of various flowers, which bloom in gardens, gave me that extra helping hand in painting the floral details.

Flowers in vase 2
A 20 by 30 canvas was used for this painting.
My husband encouraged me to paint an accompanying vase of flowers. Indeed I was much pleased with my second try. The shape is more pleasant to the eye! I decided to reproduce the poppy and the sunflower so that there is a certain relationship between the two paintings.

A 20 by 13 stretched canvas on board was used for this painting.
After reading a couple of books regarding painting with oils, I decided to try out the Removing paint technique. After applying thick layers of oil paints, I scraped it off with a palette knife. Afterwards, I carefully painted the houses shown in the distance.
