A detail image of a large acrylic work in progress. Flowers and foliage in a pastel landscape. Daisies, dogwood, violas and marigold leaves.

An extra week off work 🤠 I’ve set my easel up in a sunny lounge room to paint this corner. Oh the joy.

What a wild time that must have been, a flower causing chaos. I’ll find out which variety was the most coveted and try painting it!

A detail image of a large work in progress. A purple, white and pink tulip in a landscape. There are under painted vines behind the flower and green foliage on the right side and in the foreground.

Don’t think I’ll ever tire of painting tulips, this one is almost done. Detail of a big work in (slow) progress.

Thanks. I love a lone flower too Ingmar! I’m planning a series on paper for next year that will (hopefully) capture a similar feeling.

An acrylic work in progress. A grey jug on a surface, with a female figure holding a hen at the centre.

Working on a new large painting tonight, getting a bit nearer to the atmosphere I’m chasing for this one. A long way to go.

Back at the oils, a little floral study for courage, on canvas.

I will make sure to prepare myself for the third one 😅

Many thanks Catherine. Splashing paint around to build the background layers is great fun.
Love your banksia cone prints!

Thanks ever so much.
Yes audiobooks. I listen through Audible, there’s a great Sherlock Holmes collection read by Stephen Fry who does a marvellous job! Audible has the BBC collections also. I will check out the The Thursday Murder Club Series ❤️

Thank you Jillian 🌷

A large acrylic painting titled ‘Fortuna’ with a blue background. Tulips, auricula, daffodils, daisies, bluebells, roses, foxgloves, irises and a bat flower in a large pot that has blue bodies on it.

I’ve enjoyed painting this absurd combo of flowers. Listened to about 50 hours of Sherlock and Poirot while I was at it.
