A Jug of Daffodils

I thought it was time to dust off my large collection of pallet knives and make them do something creative! I firstly covered the canvas with some texture using modelling paste to give some lines and flow. After doing the painting I finished off with some splattering!!

As there are some lovely spring flowers around at the moment, I think I will do a series, next one will be some gorgeous hyacinths.

A lovely Workshop with Network Arts

Yesterday we had a great time with an oil and acrylic workshop with Mo Teeuw who is a wonderful tutor. It is always amazing how many different styles and talents you find in a group of enthusiastic artists. Here is my painting, done from a photograph from my trip to Staithes in Yorkshire last Summer.

Winter Chill

I loved the light and the colours that a Winter morning brings.
