Rest day today walking and exercising and watching sport

Thought I'd share another couple of recently finished paintings. Any questions, critiques are most welcome;

Short burst of painting today and finished this picture:

Spent an hour in the garden setting traps for the latest mole. Inhumane you might say. If you walked on my lawn, it is bordering on dangerous due to the amount of tunnels they have dug down the years. I kill one and months later another one moves into the redundant tunnels.

 3 mile jog with the dog pm.

Painted from 11am - 1.40pm and had 30 mins for lunch. Painted again til 4pm. Went to the gym and burnt 750 cals doing cardio and then had burger and chips!!

Below are finished watercolours. I am happy with them for the moment. I will put them away for a couple of weeks and get them out to see if there are any glaring problems.

I am watching a new dvd by Alvaro Castagnet at the moment. I thoroughly recommend him if you want to loosen up;
