Every now and again my grand daughter, Hana Rae (4) visits me in my studio upstairs, (often just before bedtime!) with the proclamation "Grampa - I want to do some painting".  It is difficult to decline such a  request and why would I anyway (unless mum and dad have other ideas of course) and as she is becoming more enthusiastic I thought it would be a bit of fun to share some of her lovely colourful pictures here..

Forest

Our very first adventure into watercolour land together (August 2025)

Snail

Inspired (I will assume) from walks in our garden after a shower of rain.   (Sept 2025)

Untitled

We will have to think of a name for this picture but in the meantime I'm seeing it as not in the least bit out of place in Tate Modern (I'm being serious) hence the rather fitting working title. (Christmas 2025)

Messy Rainbows

..... obviously (Feb 2026)

Mermaid
