Finally finished my beloved painting of Ruby and Kai

We are finally home in Margaret River WA.  A little unsettled with no home/house but adjusting fine.  We are squatting, as Gypsy's do, in a beautiful part of the world, Prevelly.  Our time has been spent catching up with family and friends.  I'm one of the lucky ones where at my age I still have my wonderful parents and we all celbrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary at Voyager Estate on Saturday.
I am now getting into my creative space.  Eventhough I lost my place in Peter Scott's art class, I was able to attend last week where his invaluable knowledge and underatsanding of what I wanted to achieve enabled me to finish the Ruby and Kai painting. Well, nearly. all I have to do is seal it in a few days. 
The family love it, especially Ruby and Kai.  There Noni, my sister Ricky has claimed this painting and now their parents Rebecca and Simon want another one including their gorgeous 3rd child Asher.  Now that one will be a challenge.


I am really glad this is finished and I love the end product.   I lost a bit of the momentum when
 I had to leave it for so long and as I guessed less under the water  was better.
Now for my next project........
