Back from the wilderness

It's been too long since I last updated this blog, in the past few months I have had a relatively unproductive period (painting wise) although I have been regularly attending life class and in the past month I have finally started to find some joy in painting again, this time with a series of landscapes taken from regular walks I take. 
In this post I will be showing what I have been up to in the past few months

Here I am working on several landscapes. I'm really enjoying painting field systems and feel it could lead to an interesting series. The fields are all from views I see walking through the fields and lanes around St. Hilary and Goldsithney. I aim to produce a series based on my Cornish ramblings
The bottom left is nearing completion, so stay tuned for an update!


My return to Landscape painting after nearly a year!
It was a really nice experience to paint from the landscape again. This piece sold in little over a week so that has been a huge boost and has encouraged me greatly

This is the first painting I had made in over 6 months. It was great to start painting again after such a long break

Here I am painting at the stunning Cot Valley with Newlyn School of Art. We were being filmed for an article in The Times about alternative activities along the Cornish coast
