Its my last few days here in Wales for a while, I’m heading back home to Ireland on Tuesday, having been away for two months
While I’ve been away from my studio I’ve been making acrylic sketches on paper.
Today I added a final layer of oil and cold wax medium to the sketches, using just two oil colours, violet and yellow
Then I stuck them up on my bedroom wall with gum strip ,(that sticky backed brown paper that is used for stretching drawing paper)
I also had a great time browsing through some of Richard Diebenkorn’s sketchbooks in the wonderful accessible digital archive from Stanford

These are amazing and inspiring, Liz. Their energy makes me want to get out of my chair and into the studio! Wonderful work.
Oh hello Ron! Thanks very much and great to see you here!
Hi again, I just tried clicking on your blog, but it doesn’t work. Can you send me a link to your blog by fb messenger or something?
These are wonderful and the violet and yellow really vibrates. Your work glows.
I like these better than Diebenkorn. A lot. They are fabulous. Just saying.
Hahaha, you are so sweet, (and funny lol) thanks so much Claudia
