Paint Cuddly Koalas by Chris Hobel using Jo Sonja Acrylics. Detailed instructions are in the latest Fine Art and Decorative Painting Magazine Vol 16 #7

Koalas are cute Australian marsupials that live in trees and also are becoming rare. They still roam around the area where I live but are seen less frequently due to car accidents taking their lives. They are not bears. During very hot conditions they are willing to make friends inorder to get water as was the case this summer in Southern Australia

Magnolia painting By Chris Hobel

The painting of the magnolia was done a few years ago, I completed quite a few over that time, and sold them all, but flowers are not what the galleries want around where I Live , abstract and very large paintings up to 3 or more metres in size are the go. I love to paint flowers but they dont pay the bills, so if you do love flowers, email me, Im happy to accomodate.
