Nelson Lighthouse and Naked Ladies

Nelson Lighthouse and Naked Ladies (Amaryllis Belladonna) is a very special painting to me. The perspective is unusual, especially how you look up at the flowers called "Naked Ladies" (Amaryllis Belladonna).

7am at Java Hut

“7am at Java Hut” is the larger one of two oil paintings done of Java Hut, the funky coffee place in Mapua.
