Oil painting of a gentle river flowing through a deep pine forest. Painted on canvas. Forests invoke all sorts of feelings and offer so many different colours, depending on the season. They are a magnificent subject to paint. Forests give us so much to help us live. They should be respected and protected. Forests are vital to the security of everything on earth. Forests came first. Humans are just a moment in time. May be the most asked question has an answer in the gentle rustling of winds, wafting through the canopy of our wise old trees. Where did we come from? Shhhh, just listen. | shape, map

This red haired young lady was inspired by the memory of my Grandmother, who in 1914 worked in service for the Trevellyn family and the Claverings as lowly kitchen maid. Born in 1900 in the tightest oppressive class system. She was impressed by the footman to believe herself to be as equal and worthy of respect as those she served. Rather than curtsying and stepping aside for the arrogant wealthy. The footman gave her courage to hold her head high and just keep walking. Grandma Martha Jane was strong willed her family from Scotland went back to Isabella Marr, Robert the Bruce first wife. | a painting of a person in a black and white dress standing in front of a house and a

Oil painting of snow covered mountains. With pine trees and a lakeside bathed in sunlight. Golden Autumn at its best. Painted on strong MDF Board. This painting is ready to frame. I love mountain scenery with its clear clean air that makes you rest better at night. This is how our world should be cared for. Not built upon by lines and lines of holiday hotels and smothered in car parks and takeaways. Real wealth and real health both mental and physical means that this is where mankind fares best. Living close to the natural earth where we truly belong. | a painting of a mountain scene with trees
