Peter,

They are all beautiful. I also paint or at least I used to. My fun was Sumi-e. Are you familiar with it?

I want to thank everybody for all of your kind words and encouragements very much appreciated, the sun is shinning here today, managed to have a huge seed planting , 50 full trays of seeds, we did not finish until 2 this morning, but we always enjoy it, we have about another 150 seed trays to fill yet, we always do our seed planting in two , about three weeks apart, to give us continuous flowering, and its always an insurance for the first lot in case anything happens to them, its a busy time ahead for all gardeners.
Gardeners are special people, i consider them guardians of making a more beautiful world, they help to fashion nature in a beautiful way, you all take care of yourself, hope that you are all keeping well and warm, and the sun shines on you as it is on us today, to lighten your hearts, god bless you all.

I have added a couple of my water paintings for you to see, i love painting, birds and wild life, and needles to say gardens, hope that you enjoy, kind regards Peter and Mary-Anne.

Very nice work - all of it !!!

Just curious about what size the watercolors are. I have found that I like working with the larger sizes best -18" x 24" up to 20" x 26".

Thanks for sharing :)

Love your work...I just love sitting, painting..it gives one such an accomplishment..I think I must have been a spirit brought back from country life as I have a great love for anything old...
