Wave

Unfold the sketch book, drawings and words of what seems to be so long. Listen to the same music and sounds and begin to paint. First captured in November 08, this is the first start for one of the, 'Wave' series captured at Sennen in Cornwall..

Finally getting back to doing some work after such a long enforced layoff. Thought I'd finish off the Albert Dock and add a start I've made on the Angelsey inspired pieces. See earlier photos.

Will Still Be Posting

I have been in hospital since late August but will posting again very soon...promise.

Studio Update

Studio Update

Added the finishing touches to a small 1ft square piece I had put to one side some time ago. I was probably still enthused by the light on the water at Angelsey last week . Anyhow, I finally managed to push this piece to a conclusion. I find it really does helps to turn them against the wall for however long it takes if it becomes a struggle to resolve the image.... that said, I think I should get it framed and get it behind glass before I change my mind again and start to fiddle.

Studio Update

Needed to start moving some paint around again and stop stalling. Picked up some sketches I did earlier this year at the Albert Dock and began a new piece.

Wandering and Wondering

Llandwyn Island, Angelsey.

Weekend away in Wales this week at Betws y Coed. A short drive away I did a walk to find possible sites for future landscape work.

Bottle green sea, flecked, spattered and glittered, with stabbing white broken light. Steel grey distant mountains ripped through the heavy belly of low scudding clouds. The wind pushed a buoy to a 10 o clock tilt, pointing the way to shore for the passing white horses.
