In "A Studio in Montparnasse, c1926, " we catch a glimpse of George's creative spirit as he immerses himself in the vibrant Parisian art scene. The canvas comes alive with colors and brushstrokes that reflect his passion for expression. Travel back even further to Elizabethan England with "Elizabeth I, Queen of England and Ireland, c1588. " Here, George captures the regal grace and power of one of history's most iconic monarchs. Her gaze holds secrets untold, leaving us intrigued by her enigmatic presence. Sports enthusiasts will be thrilled by "The England Test cricket XI at Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, 1899.

"The Gordon Highlanders. How Piper Findlater won the V. C. At Dargai, 1897" transports us to a battlefield where bravery shines through amidst chaos. With each stroke of his brush, George immortalizes Piper Findlater's heroic act during this historic conflict. In "Ennui, c1914, " we witness a different side of George's artistic repertoire - capturing moments of introspection and contemplation. The somber tones evoke a sense of melancholy while inviting viewers to ponder deeper meanings hidden within everyday life. For puzzle enthusiasts seeking leisurely entertainment, there's "Jigsaw puzzle of golfers on Prestwick golf course, Scotland, c1914. " This playful artwork showcases George's ability to capture lighthearted moments that bring joy to those who piece together this delightful image.
