Beetroot

 There are a number of small independent shops near my brothers that sell all sorts of fruit and vegetables, some that you dont find in the supermarkets, or, if you do they are cleaned, stripped of their leaves and wrapped in plastic.  

Cyclamen

 My neighbour was having some technical issues with her new lap top and printer, by sheer fluke I managed, eventually, to sort the problem.   As a thank you she gave me a little cyclamen plant that just keeps throwing out new flowers.

third rosehip painting

 The rosehips have lasted well but are beginning to shrivel up now so this will be the last painting of them.

Second painting of the cow parsley and twigs

I rather enjoyed painting the cow parsley so decided to do a second piece.  I used an old fashioned  dipping pen with water colour put on with a paint brush to do the fine lines.  

 

These are lovely at this time of year!

 

I love teasels but I won't try painting them again!
