This is a place where I regularly post personal artwork, good, bad or indifferent.
The characters that crop up regularly in this blog are husband – Robin, eldest teenager and only daughter – Flo, next teenager and eldest son – Tom, teenager second son – Hugo, five year old third son – Xavier, and red Staffordshire Bull Terrier – Rufus.
I'll try to reply wherever you comment but if I don't it's only because I'm overwhelmed with running a family and earning a living.
My two eldest have started a business venture selling artwork (mainly my paintings) to raise money for university. Please visit their site, Oakley Gallery to see what they are selling now.
If you want to buy prints of anything you see here or have any requests please send an email to flo at oakleygallery dot com

What a lovely, peaceful illustration. It needs a story to explain what/why Rufus it gazing off in the distance.
A nice old-fashioned kind of drawing and a cute dog, though we always had border collies or kelpies.

Windblown, Rufus is saying 'Hurry up Mum, which way doe we go now?'
Wendy thought you might like to know the first time I saw (and fell in love with) a Staffie was in Taveuni. A family there had a gorgeous litter of little black puppies.
Julie,
Many of the dogs in Fiji are not treated well, cats also have a rough time. But my grand-daughter's pet was quite unusual - a huskie. A Korean lady apparently brought her huskies to Fiji and though they are snow kind of dogs, they are okay in Fiji but they lose their fur.
In Rakiraki we had a little bitzer, pale brown, we called 'Biscuit' because at the time I was eating cracker biscuits (3 months pregnant and nausia was a problem).
