Waves and rocks —acrylic painting
I’m finding it a lot easier to paint waves in acrylics compared to watercolours, you can overpaint to get frothy foam.
Boat on the beach — an Acrylic Painting
I’ve been playing with acrylics, rather than my usual watercolours. I paint with a friend, and she is much more comfortable using acrylics.

Listening
Walking back from your house,
Orion calling to me over mine,
the glow at the next street light
burst into fluid noise, birdsong at midnight
rippling through our suburb
with no one but me to hear.
I should have gone back and got you,
taken you to hear.
But I’m still uncertain of your reaction,
pragmatic as you are,
and you need to get your students marking done.
The bird was calling out unheard
or heard only by me.
Just as you call and are unheard.
The idiot man who left you,
the sisters who think you should be
over it by now,
and only me, each Wednesday night
to listen to you as we paint.
