Lovely portrait. You should see how we watch football at our house! We have snacks, but my daughter is reclined in her chair, my grandson is in his chair, playing with slime or Legos, and I have my sketchbook, drawing, on the couch. The oldest grandson stays in his room, taking a nap. I put some sketches on my blog earlier of our activity.
See, I knew I wasn't missing anything by not watching sports on TV! Great picture. And how does your husband feel to find he's asleep in a lot of your pics?
My name is Angie Wood and I live on a narrowboat on the beautiful Oxford canal.
A long time ago in the eighties I studied Art and Design at Goldsmiths College and went on to be a paste up artist and then a graphic designer. I’ve never stopped painting and drawing though – I painted pet and animal portraits for a while and over the past two years have begun creating small oil paintings of vintage objects, textiles and flowers. I collect items from fleamarkets to paint and my little narrowboat is getting fuller all the time! I’m particularly delighted by colourful patterns on textiles and ceramics and I also love painting reflective surfaces. I’m usually attracted to items from the early part of the twentieth century, which bring back memories of my great aunts’ and grandmother’s cosy houses. My artistic aim is to pay homage to the things I paint by observing them as closely as I can, and to create something beautiful that will hopefully make people as happy as I was when I was making it!
