Road to Brecon


oil on canvas 7x11"

Well Rene has arrived...and look at the weather,
a real Welsh baptism...wet,windy and cold!
This was painted on the way back from the airport picking him up,
the road through the Brecon Beacons.

We arived home in the dark,
little did Rene know he would wake up to a view like this one below.

see his lovely painting of our house here
