Black Rock Cottage, Glencoe In Tundra Colours

Stockbury Church Tower
For my final dash and splash of the day, I headed out to Stockbury Church and settled down in a spot that I'd painted from before. After not being...
Hills In Shire Colours
As I said in the last post, I felt like I could do a second quick painting today. Because I’d managed to paint an imaginary landscape quite...
Hills In Tundra Colours
The rain's finally stopped, so I'm back on the watercolours at last. I thought I'd let myself back in gently by painting an imaginary landscape...
Thea’s Back
More angular figure drawing and today's model was Thea. You know the drill by now. Put down the drawing with lots of straight lines, put on lots...
Sam
It's raining outside, which is a big frustration because I have a great idea for my next watercolour. Instead I'm stuck indoors and thought I'd...
Thatch Cottage, Hartlip – The Full Monty

Nuuk Art Museum

Next I moved position to get a view of the porch at the front of the church. I went against the advice of Alex Hillkurtz and picked a viewing...

Murray Edwards College, Cambridge
After all that fun with whitewashed buildings in my last painting, I wanted to have another go at something similar. After googling for white...
