Hello, Welcome to my Blogsite.
My name is Bobby Manoo. I am originaly from Trinidad and Tobago and now residing in London, UK with my wonderful wife. I have a Masters degree in Computing and work in the IT field as a Project Manager. I have a number of keen interests which I have shared on this blogsite.
Paintings
Over the years, I have done some watercolour paintings and pencil drawings but I have now settled on using oil on canvass. I think this is a much better medium to bring out vibrant colours which blend well. I have included some of my more recent works. I have also started to experiment in Astro paintings to complement my other interest … Astronomy. All my available art pieces are indicated, if you are interested in aquiring any of them then do drop me a note.
Astronomy
I am an amateur astronomer with a passion for Astro Photography, Observing and Astro Painting. I do have a telescope and I am an active member of the Flamsteed Astronomy Society based at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich. I am also an Observing volunteer with the Royal Observatory. I have included some paintings and astro-photography that I have captured over the years – some from my back garden and others from travels around the world.
Some of my pieces are on display at our local Art Gallery, Capital Art Gallery at 13 Well Hall Parade, Well Hall Road, London. SE9 6SP. (https://www.capitalartgallery.co.uk/)
Have fun! and do drop me a note.
