Stag and Hinds in Forest

"STAG AND DOE IN FOREST" This was inspired whilst on a walk with my wife in a forest near our home. The sunlight filtering through the trees made the scene seem amazingly calm and serene. It was a such an amazing sight and one which will be remembered for a long time. I can still sense the silence and the wonder that we both felt. This is one of my eldest son's favourite paintings and he will not let me sell it, despite a number of very attractive offers! Most things that hold true value to us are worth much more than money, my sons love of this painting, I believe, demonstrates this without doubt. I, of course, will never sell it. It is his forever. Not for sale. In private collection of Mr. J. J. Perry

Just the Two of Us

"JUST THE TWO OF US." Two beautiful tortoiseshell butterflies, resting on pebbles. This painting is one of my hand painted greetings cards. Each is individual and unique, there is no other the same in all the world, no print exists, that is what makes them such a lovely gift for that special someone. Watercolour within greetings card. Card size A5. SOLD. In the collection of Miss S. Qian of New Zealand.
