to share a few examples of my paintings with you. I'm not going to bother with my landscapes because I'm not satisfied with them and only started to paint them again relatively recently. All these flowers are growing in my garden, and I painted them this summer/autumn. I thought that as you are gardeners you might appreciate them.

The piccies are all A5 size really.

Oh Plocket what can I say- they are absolutely beautiful :) How talented you are - they are almost lifelike :) Would love to see your landscapes when you are completely satisfied with them.

Oh Plocket, you are very talented, they are lovely. :) The Montana is my favourite, I think, but it was a close call!

Thank you! All of you! (I'm blushing but dead chuffed!!!) No I don't paint professionally Lottie but I try and paint something every week to keep my hand in - it's difficult finding time what with being a mum. Before the summer I hadn't painted for years but a friend persuaded me that I should start up again, and you see the result!

Those are lovely pictures. I do hope you will post some more, especially landscapes!

Absolutely stunning! In this ramshackle old body of mine, there lay not one artistic bone, so I hold those who can paint, draw and create in great awe Plocket! Your paintings are wonderous, beautiful. You are a clever clever person with eyes that see more than others see.

WOW!! Those paintings are amazing, Plocket. I can't wait for you to share your landscapes - perhaps in 2006?

Thanks for sharing!! Keep up the good work!

Excellent pictures Plocket. When I saw them my first thought was like looking at the illustrations from a Victorian Plant Collectors journal. That's meant as a compliment they really are fantastic pictures. I draw but haven't tried flowers yet.

Plocket. Fabulous paintings. I bet you can guess which ones I really drooled over. Thank you so much/ More please.

Plocket · « **Reply #13 on:** December 29, 2005, 14:15:25 »

Thank you everybody!

2spot: I'm very flattered by your association with a collectors journal but I'm no where near that good! I have been brave enough to give some of my paintings to friends though occasionally, and there's a few in family homes.

Lorna: the clems by any chance? ;) I think of the ones I've shown Fair Rosamund and the Kaffir Lily are my faves.

Ply me with booze again and I might pluck up the courage to post more paintings someday - perhaps of some of the gardens I've visited.
