I particularly like Princess Street Cottage. The painting of your niece's floral arrangement is nice, too.

Your work just draws me into the scene and I feel like I’m there for real. Well done!

I think I remember you painting a typewriter that I loved. Maybe I’m mistaken. Would be fun to see a series of childhood toys/objects. I’ve done a couple in a different style that included view masters and troll dolls 🙂

I took a ton of pix at the Museum of Childhood in Edinburgh. Eventually, I'll get around to doing a bunch of paintings of the various scenes from there!
