Windy Hawfich

Tweet of the Day : Windy Hawfinch : I love it when the wind blows birds feathers....it's a challenge to painting...The UK's largest finch, it has a massive, powerful bill. Always shy and difficult to see, the hawfinch has become even more enigmatic in recent years with a decline in many of its traditional breeding areas. They still come to our feeder...

The End of the Day

he End of the Day : Back to the lake..ad the last light of the day…a days fishing over…the beer all drunk….some fish to take home for supper….the end of a perfect day…and the end of our exhibition today….we close at 4pm at The OXMARKET in Chichester West Sussex UK…find it if you can….the best hidden gallery…in the UK… hint : Get to the walkway in the centre of town and find the shop Monsoon…opposite this there is a gap in the wall…which if you stand sideways you can get through it..
Then into a car park and in the corner of this car park is the gallery. Good Luck!

Summer Coal Fire

Summer Coal Fire : Back in the Summer painting on the lake it was very cold like a Winters day...the mittens were out...the coat and hat stayed on....and as we painted we saw that a fire had been lit in the lake side cottage...the smoke appeared and drifted across the lake...a painters gift...would we have thought of that? probably not...but a nice detail to paint and remember....

La Chat Seurat

La Chat Seurat : This is how I imagine Seurat would have painted his cat if he had thought of it...out in the park....walking their monkeys and cats and even dogs....they really did walk their monkeys...very popular and fashionable at the time...
