It's a bit chilly this morning! So how about a nice sunny painting to start the day then?

This painting is very closely linked to another of Fergusson's works, 'Gloxinias and Fuchsias' also painted in 1938. It shares the same enlarged scale and sculptural treatment of form, plus an emphasis on colour and curving line and pattern.
JD Fergusson; Lillies, circa 1938
JD Fergusson secured a commission from the Ministry of Information for a series of paintings of Portsmouth Dockyard. He spent six weeks there gathering sketches from which he went on to paint a distinctive series of works now know as his Portsmouth Dockyard series.

#DougieDraws was late to the party for #NationalDogDay 🐶
However, to celebrate, Dougie has put together a 'ruff' recreation of 'Head of a Jack Russell Terrier' by Robert L. Alexander.
Ooh la la!
Today #DougieDraws recreated 'Souvenir de Jumièges' by JD Fergusson!
Très beau Dougie
Today #DougieDraws recreated 'Stony Sleep' by Blair Millen!
We love Dougie's interior design skills in recreating the living room!
Happy #NationalRelaxationDay everyone!
We hope you are all having as relaxed a day as Jean Maconochie in JD Fergusson's painting 'The White Dress: Portrait of Jean'.
Happy Son and Daughter Day 👶
We are sure JD Fergusson had today in mind when he painted 'Mother and Child: Sheila'!
How old do you think Sheila's child would be today?
