watch this space
day 1
day 3
First of February, start of a new phase, bright work, bright future, spring is coming
February in a converted granite barn is a challenge
I love my studio
I’m glad that Spring is coming too
Why on earth would I attempt to paint landscapes when you can get photos like these?
Admittedly the saturation is high and the pixels are visible
This sort of thing is a rich source for abstraction, combined with the sharp hail on my nose and my wet feet from the incoming tide
And Junos disappointment at the orange fishing float not being a ball (too hard too heavy) is just icing on the cake
Its February tomorrow, Spring will soon be here
Keep warm, be safe 🙂
cold beautiful morning
cosy in the kitchen
making porridge and warming coffee on the range
duck eggs collected
alls well with the world
2 dogs 2 walks 2 beaches a rainbow 10 panels and a sunset, need more? I don’t think so
coming accross a facebook profile pic taken about 12 years ago gave me the idea to do a bit of a nostalgic trawl
here is that pic:
and here are some paintings from a few years ago ( not 12 years ago as I havent got photos of most of them, but starting from about 7 yrs back)
And me again in spray painting mood!
And last summer, the wrinkles are setting in, but who cares, life is good
And now a granny in my corner!
And when it started
Thanks everyone for following my journey
