Bit of trial and lots of error with this one, but learnt a lot and only lost my temper twice. I'll get it right next time! Rendered in oil with a palette knife on 24" by 18" canvas board.
This is supposed to be Souter light house in Whitburn, Tyne and Wear - more info here

High Heedjin
' Man, a love big heed's me!' So here's another one. Again, it's rendered in oils with a large pallet knife. Canvas is 80cm by 60cm.
Rano Raraku on Easter Island is a volcanic crater and moai grave yard. It is a quarry site where moai can be seen in various states of completion. Some are half carved, many are broken, and many seem to have been abandoned in mid-transport. Most remarkably, at the base of the quarry, moai stand half buried in the slope up to their chins and noses from years of erosion.

Heed's
This is my first attempt at what may loosely be termed as art. Its a rendering of Moai heads (found on Easter Island - Go here for more info). Not everyone's cup of tea but there ye go!
Completed in oils with a palette knife. Canvas is 60cm by 80cm.
I'll hang it on the wall for now but may sell if the price is right!! Come on down....... Click the image to enlarge. High definition image available.
Now i've got the bug, expect another big heed soon.
