I'm continuing my series of paintings celebrating the positive aspects of the great ship's existence and championing her Belfast beginnings.

	present paintings of subjects that have inspired them personally - a unique selection of paintings by some of Britain's top railway artists.

At Goodwood Revival historic motor race meeting I found "Remus" - Prince Bira's ERA that competed at the 1936 Limerick Grand Prix and is featured in my painting of the race.

It was also brilliant to see the Ulster Folk & Transport Museum's McCandless four wheel drive 500cc racer out on the track - 58 years since it last competed at Goodwood!


	The Limerick Grand Prix On Sunday 4th September I was lucky enough to get a three lap run of the 'Round the Houses' circuit of the 1935 - 1938 Limerick Grand Prix in an MG P-type - thanks to Paul Macnaughton of AutoJumbler.ie. I also found time to display some new paintings of the original races and launch my latest Limerick Grand Prix paintings and greetings cards.

My Titanic painting "Passing Pickie" just made it on to the front cover of "CQD" the Journal of the Belfast Titanic Society.

And now for translations!

Pickie: a promenade area to the west of Bangor Bay, once famous for the outdoor swimming arena Pickie Pool (though that came after Titanic in the 1930s.)

CQD: introduced originally by The Marconi Company to express a state of danger or peril of the ship that sends it. Literally "CQ," signifying a general call, followed by "D," meaning distress.This was the Titanic's final distress call.

"Shannagh" - Bernese Mountain Dog

I love the challenge of capturing a likeness - whether that be human or animal in form.


	100 year anniversary of Titanic Launch - and a small launch of my own!

It took just 62 seconds for Titanic's great hull to slide from her building berth into the water of Belfast Harbour, on 31st May 1911.

In the wake of this huge anniversary I'm launching my new Titanic bookmarks - as a small and handy reminder! Click here to see more.


	De Lorean On Saturday 28th May an 80-strong procession of De Loreans returned to the original site where the cars were made and took a lap around the original test track, at Dunmurray in Belfast. The procession went on to the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum for the afternoon. My screenprint, "Back to the Past", depicts a De Lorean sitting beside a traditional Ulster Folk Museum cottage!

Titanic Greetings Cards

Celebrating 100 years since the launch of RMS Titanic - this set of six special cards from my original Titanic paintings show the building, fitting out, launch and sea trials of the great liner - her Belfast Beginnings.

	My Artwork for a new book - "The Two Pennies"


	By Susie Millar, the great-granddaughter of Thomas Millar, who worked in Harland & Wolff on the construction of Titanic and then sailed onboard as an engineer on the fateful maiden voyage to New York in April 1912. "The Two Pennies" is the true story of the Millar family in the lead up to Titanic's maiden voyage.
