Still struggling to get back in the painting groove. This is last night’s attempt, with challenging quickly moving windy clouds and changing light, but beautiful freshly-washed colours after some much-needed rain.
Windy cloudy evening after rain
Switching over to watercolour to try and get back some kind of sense of colour, I have veered too far and become garish! Fun, though.
These aren’t brilliant but I feel as if I’m slowly getting back towards a painting routine. Hope to have more to show soon.
Eek! A garish sky in watercolour ...
A rather watery one of the hill
Still finding it difficult to make time to paint and finding the results are often iffy, but that is how it goes! I liked the colours of this evening sketch, if not the drawing/tones/much else!

I have been trying to capture something about this lovely valley for ages and maybe this would make a good composition – but the colour didn’t really happen (and has been bleached out even more by the camera flash).

The weather is set to remain fair for a couple more days so hopefully I can produce some more paintings before the end of the month. Off to read about Emil Nolde to get my colour inspiration back …
