#30 - Caravan Dreaming Online Paint Along

My sister went on a caravan trip - her son got his croc stuck in an escalator, her other son broke his arm on the monkey bars, and she realised she was not cut out to do home schooling. So...my suspicion is that caravanning may be better in our dreams than in reality. Let's go with that.

#39 - Lemon and Limes Online Paint Along

This is a classic combination... blue and white plates look good with most things though, don't you think?

This is a very classy painting, to work through slowly, and the results are so worth it.

  • $44

#42 - Brilliant Sky Online Paint Along

There's something special about sunsets and sunrises - that's why so many of us photograph them!
