Day 17
I’m more of a visual person so asking me to document my work isn’t easy. However looking at this photograph, that I took yesterday, I love the way I’ve captured the anemone looking away and very natural. My photography is very important to me and I love it when I manage to capture reality 🌱

Capturing Nature

Day 16
I created this today whilst virtually watching Adam’s funeral. So strange - so unreal - such a waste. Rest In Peace beautiful Adam - you touched so many lives 🙏

Adam - a life too shortly lived

Day 15
Absolutely take the path of least resistance! Using one of my favorite photographs from this time last year. I love the beauty and the isolation of this scene. It was a wonderful 5am walk on the beach at low tide. It reminds me every time of how lucky I am to live here and be able to experience such beauty even in a pandemic.

The path of least resistance

Day 14

Don’t make anything - I want to!

Day 13
Now framed - yesterday’s photograph. I love it

The sun will rise again

Day 12
Working in collaboration with my printer today, to ensure the quality of my photography is honored and enhanced by printing. I just love the feel of a good quality paper and even when framed, makes all the difference.

Paper quality is important!

Day 11
Channelling Van Gogh today at Art Brunch - 40mins to hear about an artist and then create your own work. Van Gogh’s multi strokes and bright colours are beautiful to see but amazingly difficult to copy 😊

Day 10
Most of my work’s from home these days, but that’s ok. I enjoy the solitude of me, acrylic paint and the radio! Trying still life again today...

Bluebells from home (from my photograph)

Day 9
I love the contrast of the fresh vibrant Spring leaves next to the old weathered Victorian railing. I hope the viewer will notice the juxtaposition of the two subjects and wonder at both

Old and New

Day 8
Ive been thinking about it for ages and finally started selling my photographs on-line today. Gilly has been suggesting that I do this for months, so now that I’ve actually done it I asked her for her feedback. Her comment is captured above and I have now ordered the sunset too now from the printers!

Day 7
Horses - gouache and poster paints - My Green Beauty

Wonderful Powerful Horses 🦄

Day 6
My beautiful friend made me a mini Victoria sponge today, and along with eating way too much chocolate, more cake and a bit of wine I had a really enjoyable birthday even in lockdown 🍰 So my guilty pleasure today was 🎂😊🍰

Well it’s my birthday today 🍰

Day 5
‘Is there a work you've been struggling to make?’ Throughout my art-life I’ve done still life but always through gritted teeth as I don’t like it 😬 Doing a still life again today to challenge myself - and making it even harder by using graphic sticks and colored pencils - has really seen me struggle for me, but maybe I’ve come out the side, slightly...

Hard work - still life again!

Day 4
Not my favorite, but believe that pushing myself will make me more observant and maybe less abstract... doing still life for me is ‘research’ into my own abilities 🍊

Easter Oranges

Day 3
A bit of sun and a little loosening of the rules and everyone’s here... I went to take some photos - my passion - and was horrified by the crowds... I don’t think we’re ever getting out of this ☹️

Too many people visiting!

Day 2
Painting Chakras today, I was drawn to painting the Solar Plexus - my gut instinct. 🟡🟡🟡 I love the vibrancy of this painting - feathers, gouache and acrylic on board 💛

Sunshine - Yellow - Vibrancy

Day 1
My Easter Egg!

I cracked it!
