2 unfinished Woolloomooloo landscapes

\

The picturesque views from my window and balcony, looking salubriously uphill.

What's omitted are the homeless camps, downhill



Gabrielle - more work in progress


not quite finished but a better likeness 


Family group - with James, Will and Harry - still a fair way ro go, not real satisfied, and the pink sky is definitely  a gtound. It's a good colour to paint over


Very sketchy drawing of her with Niall and Mum, bit, er, tired and emotional at the time - I stick all my drawings online, if only so that I can find them


With Paul


Singing on the Macquarie River, this is finished


With Paul again, at the time of her wedding

Les, Scott, Mum, Niall and Gab


Carmel

Gabrielle - 2 paintings


this is more or less finished now - Gabrielle singing at a big party


With James


Singing. Live on the Macquarie

The first two paintings of my sister Gabrielle - pretty small, I'll do a couple of larger ones a bit later on.

These aren't finished - especially the first. The second needs skin tones etc
