Keith has very kindly offered his artwork as references for members own paintings. The only condition on this is that you state that you have used Keith's original artwork as reference.
May I suggest that if any members would like to take up Keith's very kind offer that you mention this to him, this link should take you to Keith's page http://www.craftcrowd.com/profile/Keith

Hi Gabi, thank you and yes your right about the eucalyptus the photo was actually taken in Victoria state, on our recent holiday there. I live in Sydney but we have them growing all over.. I also have these gorgeous trees in our garden called lillipilli and also have a gumnut flower in yellow...will upload when in season..
Gabi Comment by Gabi on July 12, 2009 at 1:15pm
Love your Photos, Joey. Are you from WA? that looks like a Eucalyptus Caesia"Silver princess" I think that one in Hong Kong is their national flower. It's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't think of the name.
Joey Comment by Joey on July 12, 2009 at 12:46pm
this was taken last in Hong Kong walking through there beautiful garden park, sorry I don't know the name of the flower, but it's so pretty...please feel free to use any of the photo's..will upload more later.

I've sussed out how to put the pics on. These are some of my favourites that I've taken of where I live. There are so many lovely views I'm spoilt for choice.
