I'm back

Painting Again

So its been a while since I came on here. A while is really an understatement. Over the past 7 or 8 years I went off and got married and started a family and have been raising little humans who are now at a pretty self sufficient stage hence I'm back. Back painting, feels wonderful. Realised whilst I wasn't producing a great deal over those years, I hadn't stopped thinking about it, planning it, waiting to get on with it. So I've just uploaded a bunch of pics to remind me of where I've come from, and that its now time to get on with it, its a bit exciting.
So, here we go....
