A book with the instructions for the painting on the left, and the completed painting on the right. The painting is of begonia leaves, drawn with gouache paints. The paint palette is at the top of the frame, it has 24 colours. The paintbrush sits on the book, and a palette and water cup are off to the right. Coloured spiral art of a dragon in profile, with wings spread up. The design is not yet complete. A fountain pen is lying on the paper. A small watercolour book open to two paintings - some green leaves on a blue background, and some blue flowers on a brown background. A green piece of card with a design in silver foil on it of Christmas tree and Christmas stocking ornaments hanging down from the top of the card. To the right is the discarded piece of foil. Four pairs of earrings made of shrink plastic. The plastic is clear, and they are all designs of dragons. Round stretched canvas painted orange. A design is sketched on in pencil, and some of it has been filled with modelling paste. A plastic palette with modelling paste and palette knife sits on the canvas. A thumb holds a black solid lead pencil across a sketch on white paper. Next photo has full description of picture. A4 white paper with a 4x4 grid of rectangles in red, yellow and turquoise. Each rectangle has either a simple flower or feather design drawn over it, overlapping the edges of the rectangle, in black ink with white ink highlights. Top and third rows are feathers, second and fourth rows are flowers.
