Mixed media on watercolour paper

This is a detail of the top painting.

The lane I live in

It would usually be impossible to stand on the side of my lane without being passed by cars and tractors...but today, because of the snow, and the unsalted state of our road, I can! And it was fun! There three sketches are all around 60x75cm, I will work on a painting from these.

Snowy Sunday

Snow comes to our lane, I have had a great day!

January sketches

I have been out with my sketch pad and paints, having a lovely time!

Back to the forest

These have a lot of paint on them, acrylic and gouache. They are 30x40cm.

Monday morning drawing...

It's cold here in Kent! I should say relatively cold. Light smattering of snow.

Gouache and pencil

Getting chilly

I certainly am anyway! this about the size of a4 paper, 20x30cm ish. Gouache, charcoal and acrylic on watercolour paper.

Bedgebury Forest

This is a local place for me, I visit quite often wearing a pair of trainers and jogging. I thought I would visit with my paints instead, and i loved being there!I will definitely return.

Both the sketches below are tiny, around 12x12cm.

Happy January!!

Happy New Year all. It's wet, windy and warm here in Kent, a complete contrast to last year which was so chilly and sharp. I have been out sketching, the winter landscape is so appealing to me, great colours and revealed structure. These are all small pictures, as yet unframed.
