An unusual measuring jug

A lovely just and a lovely dog. I have seen the same type of measuring jug painted in "Canal Art"...looks lovely as well.

My oh has a jug similar to yours in his workshop, yours is very special being the 'apprentice piece'
But its the art work that takes your achievement to a higher level....

(its a lovely photo of Jamie too...)

Pam thats because I hosed and scrubbed the mud off of him,only about twice a year does he look that clean.lol

Thats a really special jug then Brian, I think its great that you have painted things to represent some of your memories, Jamie is looking very superior in his photo, lol...

I really admire your work, Brian. You have a fantastic eye for detail. Just beautiful - and Jamie as always.

That is a fabulous piece of metal work Brian and especially nice to have so many of your memories painted on it , do you still have the pram ? Jamey is looking bright eyed and bushy tailed :o)

Amy I know I am going backwards towards my second childhood (OH would probably say I have reached it)but the pram is gone for ever. My aim now is to do all things I could not do when I was young.Example last week I played Ball with Jamie in open fields in a thunderstorm no coat we were soaked but it was fun.and no one to say I should not do it.

The jug is fantastic - and what beautiful paintings! It's always a mystery to me how people can produce such lovely things.

Steragram the real work was in drawing the patterns and making the Jug, my mentor only new one word perfection.the painting is less than perfect.

Homebird sounds great.

Brilliant ! Thank you for these pictures. Saved in my favourities.

Good for you Brian If we don't do it now while we can we never will, I love doing something like that ! that sounds like a fun thing to do Homebird what a great surprise for you ...

You are so clever Brain, the jug is georgous, nearly as georgous as Jamie (but not quite) :-)

Do you remember what make your pram was?
It looks like a Sol Whitby, if so you share something with Prince Charles, as he had one.
If it was its a shame it was'nt passed down like the crib because they sell for around a £1000 now.
My mum had one in her collection (could well of been yours) & I used to use it to push my first Beardie puppy up the park before he was allowed out :-)

What a wonderful talent you have Brian and its so good to see how you have enhanced your original apprentice piece in such an original way.
Jamie looks very proud of himself after his wash and brush up.

Its lovely, love Jamie and the Kingfisher, I recall my dad having one in his garage also one on the farm I use to live on.

Wow Bjs, that jug alone is a real piece of art, I love it so much ....perfect .... and your paintings are lovely. I was wondering why Nazeem ....then light bulb moment.....of course, Prince Nazeem ...the boxer lol. What a lovely idea commemorating different parts of your life in painting. I bet your parents were so proud when you first brought that amazing jug home:-)

I can add nothing, it has all been said.....

I don't know where you find the time to do all you do Bjs. I think your mentor passed on the word to you 'perfection'. Its a lovely jug. I do admire barge art but I prefer the background on your jug. It shows off the paintings so well.

Lovely art work there, Brian. Well done :o)
