Heavy Rain Forecast


Not sure why I chose this picture today (my birthday). Perhaps its because its the last one from the archives. Painted it after my Dad died. He was always fond of steam engines.
Anyway, raining heavily this morning. Hope it clears up before the bbq on Saturday.
Life goes on until it doesn't.

A birthday wave

A friend came to my house to give me two birthday presents. The first was a breaking ocean wave around 3 m high, made of crystal clear water, which was continuously moving in the same place.

The second present was an old picture which was completely black, as was the frame. The picture was for telling the future, the idea being that by staring at it images appeared. I looked at it and immediately recognised it as something I had painted myself a long long time ago. I asked my friend to look on the back of the picture and sure enough there was my signature.

Excellent presents both.
