New painting


Inspiration

I live in a house with a slightly ramshackle, heavenly garden, Lucky me! It seems to seep into my work constantly. I took these this morning from my kitchen window, inspired by this lovely blog from Finnish artist, Liivia Sirda. She knows how to photograph, all her pictures are mini works of art. Plus, I love knitting so her projects intrigue me.

Monday morning

Happy Monday!  I have a big to-do list at the top of which is this painting. It is one of several commissions I am involved with at the moment. At 1.2x1.2m it's quite a large piece, a seascape. I had better stop talking about it and start executing....lots more work to do here. I will just have a coffee with maybe a square or two of chocolate (Green and Black's burnt toffee is current favourite!!) to get me in the right frame of mind.
