This is an oil on board painting, approximately 6×6 in (15×15 cm) large, shipped without a frame in a foam lined manilla envelope. Remember that colours may look slightly different in person, but usually for the better! Please add a week of drying time from the day of this post – the paint is still fresh!

The duke’s office

Saturday, June 12th, 2010

The colour combination of the walls and he furniture just blew me away here. Although, not sure what the duke thought of his study, but seeming myself in the mirror as I sat at my desk would be a bit uncomfortable.

A Mermaid bust

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

Another addition to my imaginary library would be a beautiful bust of some composer, probably – Chaikovsky. They had one, fittingly, of a beautiful girl, at the Mermaid Inn.

The stitting room, Mermaid Inn

Wednesday, June 9th, 2010

I got a clever comment on my previous painting of the Mermaid Inn – about how hard it is to lug the accumulated book library around as you move.  Since I am a nomad in heart, I will temporary take up a comfy chair in the other room of the Inn instead, with a cup of tea, plugged into my next audio book. Large library with actual books and comfy sofas of my own will have to wait till a later date.
