And here's the companion piece to go with 1983…(A Merman I Should Turn To Be). The process for painting it is exactly the same. Both paintings...

1983…(A Merman I Should Turn To Be)
I wanted to do something today that didn't involve using a photographic source. The idea was that I could watch the World Championship Chess at...
Messing Around
It's been a whole week since I last posted. Sorry about that. Too much other stuff on. Choosing a bathroom, choosing blinds, attending an 80th...
Untitled Basic Track
The nights are fair drawin' in and the days are getting colder. I thought it was cold enough today to dig out the oil pastels again. I've not used...
Long Hot Summer Night
This is another painting that's been brewing for a while. If I don't look at the clouds and see naked women, what else is there to see? Well,...
Fire
Today it's a portrait of Jimi Hendrix. You can tell that I've used the Artist Assist App again just by looking at this one. I was planning to do...
Look Over Yonder

Third Stone From The Sun
It was too hot yesterday to be outside painting. So I spent the day indoors watching YouTube videos of people swatching the colours from the super...
All Along The Watchtower
Let's start off with the important news. I've been rejected by Landscape Artist Of The Year 2023, so won't be in a pod. But I'll be applying for...
Moon, Turn The Tides…Gently Gently Away
I'm currently reading How To Make A Watercolour Paint Itself by Nita Engle and thought I'd try out some of her ideas today with a stormy sea...
Castles Made Of Sand
This is my second attempt at a painting with a complementary colour scheme. The two colours are Winsor orange and French ultramarine. In Quiller...
Still Raining, Still Dreaming
Having learned my lessons, here's my second attempt of the day. There are only three colours in the whole painting. Payne's grey and light red...
The Wind Cries Mary
I was short of ideas today, so watched a few Jean Lurssen videos on YouTube for inspiration. I was impressed by one "exercise" she did (for...
