Things That Attract My Eye – Part 30!

Featured by communicatingcreatively, posted in Photography

Today’s images come from three walks I did over the past week, two were 2.6 km (1.6 miles), and the other was 4.7 km (2.92 miles). All of these walks were in the same area, along the Nepean River in Camden, near where I ive.

I hope you enjoy them! 🙂

Till next time!

The following images were taken on recent walks close to home, except for an image taken at the Bombo Geological site known as Bombo Quarry, near Kiama, NSW, Australia, which is roughly 1 and a one-and-a-half-hour drive from where we live.

Hope you enjoy them! 🙂

Till next time!

Wonderful To Be Back At Red Point!

Featured by communicatingcreatively, posted in Painting

This month has been a very busy month for a number of reasons, so it was a real pleasure to get back down to Red Point Artists Maker’s Market at Port Kembla last Saturday.

Due to ‘Life’ getting in the way late last year, this was the first time I had been able to get there since June last year, so it was great to back.

They always have some form of music down there. Music certainly adds to the relaxed atmosphere of the day.

When I go down to Red Point Artists, my expectation is that I will have a relaxing time, sketching, painting and catching up with other artists. If I sell a painting, I consider that a bonus. A bonus happened on Saturday.
