I have done three artworks in my life and nothing in between, here they are: I'm happy with them, but should they be the start of something more?

Our South Coast exploration included a visit to Larnach Castle (the only one in New Zealand). Given that Scotsmen tended to settle in the Dunedin area (the green, rolling hills are truly remeniscent of Scotland), it's no surprise that Charles Larnach ... Read more >
