I'm still painting!!

I am sitting in our dining room painting a tall pansy vase, and also painting underneath a 12" shallow bowl with soft roses.    It is pouring with rain and an excellent day to stay inside to paint.    
I havent been able to post any of the work I have done so far this year as it is for an exhibition in Adelaide, Australia.    There is a rule that pieces exhibited must not be previously published so it will be November before I have these pieces on my blog.  

There have been a few frustrations while painting for the exhibition ...... I am not a very patient person and the task ahead of me is huge.   :-)

I did want to "pop in" though, and say hello and explain why I havent posted for so long.
