My Capricorn husband and I live in an area with many goats, both wild and tame. Here is The Climber, 126x80 cm acrylic painting on three wood panels.

Today is the 50th birthday of our friend Mark. His wife kindly commissioned a red stag painting to honour the occasion. The short video shows the making of the triptych entitled "Viktoriya's Stag" and the surprise delivery.

There is another important birthday on January 19, that of Edgar Allen Poe, born in 1809.

Picked up a massive supply of citrus fruit this morning and a few went into salt preserves. Weather is beautiful, fit for Three Kings. Four days of rain and tighter Covid restrictions are coming so we took a long walk in the orange groves for a vitamin D top-up.
