Sometimes, it's the accidental painting that turns out best. After struggling all day with these bloody plums ( which still aren't right), and doing a kinda nice painting of lemons we saw at the botanics on Sunday, I started a little abstract just to finish off the paints on my palette - waste not want not.

But a wee house appeared within it, and then a window frame, and it became a night painting of an imaginary cottage somewhere very remote, with only one neighbour to share the dark of the night with. I was pleased with this.

Later on this week, I'll be doing a couple of blog entries focusing on one of may favourite 'finds' at RedBubble, Deb Milligan. And discoursing on if and how artists see things differently.
