Boscastle

Did this one of Boscastle in Cornwall while I was down there last week. Lots more lines and drawing in this than normal so it took a lot longer to do…also hadn’t done one in a while, so it took a bit of time to get back into the swing of things. I took LOADS of photos while I was down there so should get a couple more done over the coming weeks…though really must try and get another Eynsham one or two done for the next exhibition in the village…

Just back from a fun week in Cornwall…did a few postcards while I was down there...Also did one painting, will post that later. Most of these were don’t in, or very near a pub ;)

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

The Good – Had fun article in the local paper about my Fennel painting. Click here for a better view.

The Bad – Did not get into the RA this year…that’s 3-0 to them…will keep on trying though :)

The Ugly - …well there’s a picture of me gurning out of the newspaper at you all ;)

A little colour...

Started blocking in some of the colours today, still more drawing to be done, but wanted to get some of this down first…hopefully it’ll start to get a little clearer as this goes on and you’ll begin to get an idea of what this painting is actually of :)

More drawing...

Worked in a little more structure today in between planting things....it's starting to take shape, I'm pleased with the way the drawing is going, i think I've got a reasonably strong structure here...and I'm happy with the idea behind the painting...need to turn the upper left figure into a flock of starlings next and then it'll be onto the painting itself...which will be the tricky part :)
