Everyday in May 5 Pine Tree

My bedraggled pine tree on the roof...{unfinished)......bought as a Christmas tree many years ago, it really needs a big plant pot (or a home in the ground) but makes do with plastic storage box. The tree falls over in every typhoon but keeps surviving. Not sure which type it is...either a Norfolk or Cook pine......

Brie de Meaux

Just for fun, brie painted on wooden Brie de Meaux box................
I've had this box for a long time, and have started working on the other plain side.
Any excuse to eat lots of cheese.

Red Ginger

I bought myself a bunch of flowers, picked by a local lady........I must say, I love flowers but don't have the same patience (or maybe fascination?) with them as I do with other subjects.
A big belated thanks to the talented Johanna Bailey for featuring me on her new blog.

Still working hard, here's some fish..(not sure I've finished but first of a series)..drawn from a photo (when I should have been cleaning on my only day off this week) because it's way too hot to do it from life......funny smelly fish stories to follow soon.
Thanks for your kind comments everyone!

Bottle Gourd

Fresh bottle gourds (you often see them dried and decorated.)

Another cauliflower

I enjoy painting cauliflowers but I was distracted as I'm eager to get started on a bird's nest I've just been given.(Now the tiny ants have vacated) Most women get flowers, diamonds or chocolates........
This is a different cauliflower, now to make a cheese sauce.
Thanks for your comments everyone
