Thanks Brenda.
Can’t believe my little girl is 16yo today, where do the years go? We’re getting ready to go out for lunch, about to pop the cork!

I’ve had to go paint something bleak and moody to counter all the animals ive been painting recently, moody landscapes are where my heart rests…

Great work Graham and Lowri.
The bus trip was interesting…I came home in the taxi (now I don’t have anything to pay on the car and money from the sale of the car…I can be treated like royalty.)
Today I have a 7x5 watercolour landscape…

Boat, A3 watercolour. Hey people, are you all getting creative!? Roll on summer, hope this rain moves away before we go up to Anglesey at the end of this month.

Hello everyone :slight_smile: Time zooms by in my house, I hardly ever get on here these days so it’s really
great to browse all of your paintings when I do.

I have a new ACEO to show you, the first thing that I’ve painted just for fun for months. My time is mostly taken up with pup (who is now 8 months old and doing really well with her training), and my class decided they wanted to develop further into gouache resist so I’ve been doing a lot of prep for that.

Has the photo with a link option disappeared? I’m sure we used to be able to upload a photo and add where you wanted the link to go.

Hi everyone. Love your landscapes GK and Brenda :slight_smile:

I’m doing some live drawing at a gallery tonight at the launch of a new Arts prize. Quite nervous but looking forward to stepping out of my comfort zone. I’m awful in social situations, and usually draw on a small scale so it’ll be fun to size up :slight_smile:

Prep’ work:

Good luck tonight Lowri, no pressure ;o)
I had lots of work to do in the garden this morning but its bucketing it down, did a bit of painting instead, practicing with tone and contrast- Night Snow, A4 watercolour.

Gorgeous painting!! :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks for the luck. It was so scary at first with two big 6x4 feet boards to do and everyone walking around and watching, but it went really well. I finished both boards, and apart from one ‘old school artist’ being slightly snobby at first, everyone was really positive. I can’t get pictures of my camera until tomorrow though.
