Cricket match

I know, I should have been blogging but been very busy doing other things.

Ron's first post

Hi all who know me, I have succumbed to blog my paintings after nagging from friends and family. I have been a keen watercolourist since 1997 after watching the TV series "A BRUSH WITH ASHLEY" and thought that looks quite easy (wrong) and now think I have nearly mastered the medium. My first post is a snow scene . I will post some more soon hopefully better quality photograph.
This is my retirement hobby and I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoy painting them.
