Mike Russell has sent in three paintings. “All have been painted in acrylics and photographed with an ordinary 35mm digital camera. The sailing boat is an image of a Bluenose schooner; these boats sailed out to the fishing banks of Newfoundland and launched small dories to do the fishing. Alas, only a replica remains, which I have seen sailing off Halifax, Nova Scotia. The fox is one of my wildlife paintings, although I usually paint birds. The mountain scenery is a stormy Brecon Beacons, a place I love. It was executed with palette knife, brush, toothbrush, spray and probably other tools as well. This is one of my largest paintings I think 24"x 20".”
