Perch

Hi all,
In my last post I showed you a picture that I'd drawn of a fish called a perch. He's a miserable looking critter, but I don't suppose I'd be too pleased if my diet consisted mainly of worms.

 Anyway, I was quite pleased with my efforts, but they were soon over shadowed when my wife showed me the hare that she'd just painted.

This is an amazing painting and I guess the devil must have got into me when I challenged her to try painting a fish like my perch to see how she got on with that. "Hares are one thing," I said, "but painting a fish takes real skill."

A couple of days later she showed me this.

I might be biased but I think it's very good. The thing is, she could probably make some money from painting but she hasn't got that sort of motivation. She is happy to paint a bit, make a few things from polymer clay and enjoy a range of other crafts as the mood takes her. Oh what it must be like to be multi-talented.

By the way, I am giving away free downloads of one of my books, "Bun In The Oven" from the 9th of August until the 11th. Please grab a copy and enjoy. To get a copy just click on the BOOKS tab at the top of the page and then onto the book's cover.
