Life drawing session number three at #Lifedrawingreading with #vintagevibesmoderntimes #lifedrawing #charcoaldrawing #figuredrawing #charcoalsketching #atelierdrawing

It’s only my third visit to @lifedrawingreading at Battle Library and I’m hooked. Such a cathartic creative way to spend an evening and with such a talented crowd. Thank also to the wonderful @vintagevibesinmoderntimes #lifedrawing #figuredrawing #figureatelier #nudedrawing #drawingfromlifemodel #charcoaldrawing

Yesterday and this morning I’ve been in the ‘world of acrylic paint’!!!! I used #molotow and #liquitex markers to work out composition and tone then had lots of fun with the #landscapepainting in regular #acrylicpaint yes, it’s a bit more of an #abstractlandcapepainting than my usual … that’s a good thing, right?

Open today - last day- Sussex Art Fair at Goodwood Races. Come and enjoy beautiful work, sunshine and meet 90+ artists. #sussexartfair

I can’t pretend I’m not a bit heartbroken since leaving Scotland- even writing this is making me emotional. Since leaving I’ve been slightly lost as a painter so all I can do is paint it and hope to return soon #scotland #scottishlandscapepainting #stonehaven #watercolourpaintingsofinstagram #watercolour #watercolor #fabrianopaper #lineandwashwatercolor #lineandwashpainting

Had a lovely day painting in Malvern and I’m looking forward to a gin and tonic when I get home 😳😊 #oilpainting #enpleinair #englishlandscapepainting #peinairpainting #bankholidaypainting
