I thought I would share these portraits with you, before I move onto the next stage. This is the first part, where I lay down the paint, here I have used acrylic and watercolour, I then draw in the features with pencil. I really don’t know who I’ll be drawing, but I think the colours and shapes will dictate how I finish them. Putting them all together, I realised, I quite like them the way they are, as the brain seems to fill in the features for you #workinprogress #portraits #abstractpainting

Flower in a paper vase. I’m looking into framing

Flower in a paper vase. I’m looking into framing this one. It’s been quite a week here, with the new website completed and making plans for the project. The weekend is going to be filled with painting and walks and not much else. Wishing you all a fun one #paperart #paperbloom #paperdesign

Pleased to say the website for the new project I’ve been working on over the past few weeks, went live yesterday! www.atableplaceforart.com As some of you know, a few months ago I found myself in London during lockdown without a job, so I had to re-think my plans. This idea, has been with me for sometime and it feels good it’s now out there in the world. I’ll still be designing for Obiko and happy to say the two will cross over at times, so you’ll be seeing some more posts from atableplaceforart I’m also back living in Hastings, which is great #newproject #artlife #anewbeginning

Postcard of the week. This was drawn this morning

Postcard of the week. This was drawn this morning along with some mark making with home-made charcoal from Marsh Willow. Each box of charcoal is quite different and varies in texture, colour and thickness, great for experimenting with. Head over to romneymarshwillow to find out more and possibly win yourself a free box. The original postcard is for sale £25.00 free postage, signed and dated on the reverse. If interested please DM or email me at info@obiko.co.uk #marshwillowcharcoal #charcoaldrawing #postcardoftheweek

Most days I’ve been using a diary for my morning

Most days I’ve been using a diary for my morning quick artwork. It’s really enjoyable and allows me to keep a record of my ever changing work and methods. Thank you Ange botanyshope5 for the lovely gift from amarettidesign #diaryart #artrecord #thingswhichmakemehappy
