Still just in first week – Maelor 1&2

The 2 canvases coming along now
Began to get a feel for where I’m going with these about 6 o’clock this morning. Painted furiously for a couple of hours still in my pyjamas!
Worked mostly on these 2 and put the first 2 layers on 3 x 50cm panels
Also working on a rough piece of unstretched canvas taped to a table

Very happy to be here
Got set up in my cosy attic eyrie
Shopped for basics next door at Andy and Adams
Taped a few bits (coarse jute and watercolour paper) to the freshly plastered gable end
Started with red and orange, then black, then blue, then a few marks – have to start somewhere!
Cooked a spinach and chickpea curry with brown rice
Feet up by the stove
