Been waxing my daughters face!


Hi from sunny Kent

I am so excited about my latest painting mixed media piece, it is what happens when you mix ideas from Andy Skinner together with ideas of  Dina Wakley  and add a bit of me!

A short while ago my lovely mate Julia painted a wonderful picture of her daughter, a very talented lady (Julia I mean, don't know about her daughter, but I am sure she is pretty clever too!). Do pop over to her blog and take a look at her beautiful picture http://julialsw.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/,  I thought what a lovely idea to paint your daughter, so here is my lovely daughter Kara.

It is huge 50 x 62 and is full of cracks and texture


A close up of some of the texture






Poor Kara looks as though she has been shoot in the head!



And that's it,
I used Americana DecoArt paints Warm white,True red, Marigold and Deep Midnight and lots of wax!

Thanks for calling by



And just a quick look at what my naughty ducks have done to our lawn with all the rain we have had!

  5. Kathy this is stunning - to say the least. Thanks for the mention which I had no idea about. My daughter is much cleverer than me and her pencil drawings are amazing!
    I just love the texture you've got on your canvas. Perhaps one day I'll see it in real life.
