Digital artwork

I am enjoying digital art, very simple, not done with a tablet, but within Programmes such as Powerpoint.
Due to limited connectivity in my current location, There may be gaps in updating my blog, but I will add to it more regularly from now on.

Pier

Isn't this cool? Looking back on the Kauri Point Pier, Bay of Plenty, NZ. I might paint it...
Solo exhibition on right now at Te Horo, Horowhenua, near Wellington. Will continue on through Labour weekend, this weekend.
Sunny today, shopping then finish off a couple little canvasses of Kowhai flowers...fun, becuase they are a really different shape, and I think I may finally be able to comfortably draw as a design element.
Having fun at the local art group, just did some fun sctratchboard in Goache and Oil pastel, but prefer acrylic and goache, so will have another play with this....
happy voting to USA, and ours is coming up fast! PS go have a look at my zazzle stuff.... search for Gill Knox
Cheers
