Welcome to some of my watercolour stories inspired by humorous observations in lockdown and beyond. I hope you enjoy them and find them uplifting. These high quality prints are on acid free, archival paper which is heavyweight (300g). The website images are intentionally low resolution but the actual prints are high resolution and very clear. The watermark will be removed and each print personally signed. They will be popped into a cellophane bag and posted in a hardback envelope. Colours may also vary very slightly.


Prices have been kept as low as reasonably possible as my main aim for this collection is to spread a little cheer.

Lots of these pictures complement each other too so why not order some singles or sets as gifts for friends and family?

                                              Code LL7 Which one are ewe?

Code LL2 The neighbours had their whites out on this bright and breezy lockdown morning but Miss B.Jones was feeling a bit cheeky. She threw caution to that wind and promptly decided to hang out her brightest and bestest pants.

Code LL5 Concerts everywhere had been cancelled.  Despite this the Valleys Male Voice Choir practised at precisely 7pm every third Monday. They were so dedicated that they practiced for hours on end treating themselves to a glass of the Good Stuff every other tune.

Code LL3 The Jenkinses, Williamses and Thomases decided to do a weekly exercise class at 10.15 every Sunday morning. They'd decided to use tins of baked beans as weights. Everyone duly started flinging themselves about enthusiastically. No one noticed Sian sneak off and swap hers for two small cans of cocktail fruit as she was on a diet.

Code LL4 Great Grandma Davies was sick to the back teeth of knitting so she decided to buy a trampoline. Within five minutes she'd bounced happily out of the painting.

Code LL1 Sunday afternoon in lockdown. Adding to the general happy cacophony of birdsong was the strangely soothing sound of hairclippers coming from neighbouring gardens. Whatever next?

Code LL9 Mr.Davies and his IT pals really enjoyed working from home during the lockdown. In particular they found The Cloud extremely useful. The only downside was that it needed walking twice a day otherwise it threatened to rain.

Code LL8 Farmer Williams had heard lockdown was easing. In the excitement he remembered he was the proud owner of some rusty old velocipedes. He hurried to the cow shed, dusted off his favourite and immediately took her out for a spin. He enjoyed the whoosh of the breeze on his whiskers as he gathered speed. How fandiddleytastic! It was in this moment he began to regret not checking the brakes.

Code LL6 The loo rolls were fed up to the back teeth of being stockpiled all this time. They decided to have a mahoosive party and invite all their wet wipe and kitchen roll friends. No word of a lie it was going to get very messy (and then very clean again obvs)

Code LL10 The kids were excitedly waiting, in socially distanced fashion, to get their first icecream in ages! Good job Mr Whippy Williams was a champion darts player at his local pub 'The Hundreds and Thousands'. His champion shots were accurate almost every time. Everything was creamy and dreamy until the wind picked up...

Code TIP 1 Mr Jenkins-Thomas was beyond excited to hear that one household member could now visit the local tip. At last he could rid himself of the nonsense he had found in his shed in The Great Lockdown Clearout. He was hoping The Authorities wouldn't spot Mrs Jenkins-Thomas who was hiding in the broken parasol with a flask and a corned beef sandwich.  She'd fancied a nice trip out for the last ten weeks.

Code TIP 2 Mr Jenkins-Thomas was not a happy bunny (fuming and tamping he was). His ten minute slot at the local tip was over too soon. Deep discombobulation set in when he realised the full impact of this. But.........onward and upward. He got his 'ASDA essentials' and set off home. Meanwhile,  up in the parasol,  Mrs Jenkins-Thomas was having splendid time. She'd opened a bottle of Lambrini to celebrate a smashing trip (she made a point of keeping a small plastic wine glass under her hat for odd occasions such as this).

Code TIP 3 Mr Jenkins-Thomas had just about calmed down after his recent experience at the local tip. He decided to take a trip to the local garden centre. On this  day he took an unfamiliar route for a nice relaxing change.  Mrs Jenkins-Thomas was sat in the back with a blanket,  her trusty flask  a family pack of garibaldi biscuits. What could possibly go wrong?

Code LL11 There was much merriment in the houses as people started growing, making and brewing their own. Peeps had been experimenting and sharing with some interesting results. Evans, the Builder, thought he'd never touch a cocktail but his Rusty Nails and Screw Drivers were right up there! Gruff, the Gardener invented Pea Nacaladas and his own personal fave Mow Heetoes. But Farmer Jones knew he was on to a good thing and kept his Baa Cardies to himself. That's not in the Spirit of Things now is it? 

Code LL12  Suzies’ hair had become ever so slightly buoffant during lockdown, ‘cavewoman like’ if you will. To combat this (and other hair horrors not to be mentioned) she added lilac streaks. Then, to her dismay, she realised her supplies of red grape juice were depleted. Not to worry, she'd make her quick dash to the Co-op After all, no-one was going to see her anyway - right?

Code LL13 Staff Nurse Thomas was chuffed to bits with the care package from her neighbours. Inside were all sorts of gorgeosities. She could do with a pamper night. She lit the candles, got out the Bombay Mix, opened the wine and climbed in with her new book. What a mahoosive treat this was going to be. Everything was going swimmingly until she added the bath bomb. Now she really was over the moon!

Code LL14 Driving lessons had started again (who'd have think it?) It was all very well having dual controls but they aren’t much use if you can’t sit next to the learner to use them. It was in this precise moment that the instructor began to regret not having time to show Miss Jones where the brakes were before she enthusiastically set off.

Code LL15 A humongous amount of DIY had been going on during lockdown. People had been attempting all sorts of ridiculous nonsense they didn’t know anything about (ahem!) The local scrappy had been super busy and treated himself to a new megaphone from ‘Gigantic Bargains R Us' Business was most definitely BOOMING!!

Code LL16 Mrs Jenkins hadn’t been out the front for 14 weeks. The back had had all her attention and was indeed most perfectly coiffured. She decided she’d take her first trip out to the ‘Weed Love To See You’ garden centre to get some pansies. She was beyond excited thinking about those delicate little blooms that fluttered so gently in the breeze. But why on earth couldn’t she open the blooming front door?????
