Rocks

For Trisha
Oil on Board
5" x 7"
Mum and I went to visit John and Trish in Invercagill...we spent a splendid and very memorable day on gem stone beach collecting beautiful little stones...the best ones are somewhat translucent when wet. Trish does delicate watercolours of these stones and more...real gems in themselves. I'm attempting them in oil now by way of inspiration....something more tangible and poetic about hers though.....but I did enjoy looking so closely as I painted mine.
