good morning world
I love bog cotton, thanks for this wonderful photo posted by Bohemian Connection

when I’m travelling I take prepared pieces of unstretched rough canvas for making quick sketches
I use oilbars which are quick drying oil paint in a stick form
in hot temperatures they melt, so I use a palette knife to scoop and spread
I also use a graphite stick
when I get home again I mount the best pieces, and work up larger paintings in my studio while the memories are still fresh

a new diptych just finished in my studio
2 canvases, each 60cm sq, painted together, one above the other
part seen, part imagined, part dreamt
a mountain and water and the autumn colours of the grass and rowan berries that grow on the turf bogs of donegal
oil and graphite and spray paint, with an experimental use of masking tape (used, sprayed then removed)
