From Sarah Lynch (revision: this image did not upload properly last night, I have updated it now) 10″X16″ Watercolour on paper This has been a fairly unproductive week (for painting anyway) so I am digging into the archives again. I have always love… [...] 2.5″X3.5″ Acrylic on paper I probably won’t be posting for the next few days, I am going to Montreal for a long-overdue visit with my eldest. I will try to fill my sketchbooks with lots of urban scenes. [...] 5″X7″ Oil on board I can’t for the life of me remember what these are called. They are quite rose-like, especially the buds, but are thornless and the leaves are arranged in opposing pairs (decussate?). I picked up a couple of bunches at the market… [...] 2.5″X3.5″ Acrylic on paper This is the last of these for now, maybe I will do some more next week. [...] 2.5″X3.5″ Acrylic on paper I haven’t done anything with acrylics for a long time. They are way outside my comfort zone but I need to stretch a little. I find these tiny “ACEO”s a good way to use them. I mark a piece of 9″X12″ canvassette paper int… [...] 11″X8″ Pen & wash on paper Cichorium intybusIt was very overcast today and in fact poured with rain this afternoon, but I went out onto the common at lunchtime and enjoyed the still-uncut meadow. Chicory isn’t native to this part of the world but… [...] 5″X8″ Watercolour pencil on paper This one is a couple of years old but still quite seasonal. The paper I used was a handmade notebook with handmade paper from somewhere in southeast Asia. I thought it might work quite well for watercolour and so it might, but it is a bit soft for pencils. [...] 5″X7″ Oil on panel Daylilies are so brave and jolly! They also grow well in my very sandy well-drained garden, so I went out and bought some more today, a nice deep red this time. The garden centres have clearance sales on already and I am a sucker for discount plants. I always [...] 9″X12″ Watercolour and pen on paper Another old one. I have always liked geraniums, more properly called pelargoniums, in pots. For some reason I don’t much like them as bedding plants. In a basic terra cotta flower pot they have a simple elegance, in beds with african marigolds and petunias they are just [...] 4.5″X6″ Watercolour & guache on paper I used my English purchases for this. The gouache primaries I bought at the London Graphic Centre, and the handmade watercolour paper I bought at the Tate shop. The gouache set was a real bargain, at least I would have had to pay twice as much here. [...] |
