Snow on ice on reflection on water. Egg tempera is all about layers.

Watercolour painting of the view over my mother’s garden hedge. There are fields, white houses in the middle distance, a disused coal mine now overgrown with winter trees, all disappearing into a blue distance.

I am never very good at following instructions. I am ready to chew trees myself after setting up a trail cam.

The beavers have arrived. We knew they were a few miles downstream but now have reached our stretch of river. I have just installed a trail cam.

Any knowledgeable rewilder would know these particular lynx were totally unsuitable to be released into the wild. I therefore doubt it was anybody associated with rewilding.

Painting with tempera allows you to weave intricate layers of line and colour.

Hi Vivienne, only just seen your message. No I have only used rabbit skin glue. Is there a reason you do not want to use this glue? I have heard of people using size but I have never tried it myself.

The green belt is seen as beneficial to wildlife. The vast majority of farmed land is very poor for biodiversity. The attitude shown in the article is part of the problem .
When the minister refers to 'low value scrubland' he is describing some of the most vibrant and rich wildlife habitats.

In April, I was β€˜disappeared’ from air at LBC. It was a disorienting, distressing & isolating experience. Unknown to me, 1 listener, a respected scientist, began an unprecedented petition to express his concern. 40,000 of you signed it. I’d never met that listener - until... @davidpnoble.bsky.social

2 hours in the studio this morning. Decided to stop and go home for lunch before the inevitable fiddling started. Watercolour, 38x42cms. Currently untitled.

One of the paintings in the Watermill Gallery, Aberfeldy. Egg tempera painters mix pigment with egg yolk. The pigment is the same as you would find in oils or watercolour paints. The binder is egg yolk. One of my favourite pigments is potter's pink evident in the birch woods in the middle distance.

I am attracted to white in a landscape. Foam, snow, clouds provide a stark contrast with the rest of the landscape. A contrast the eye is drawn to follow #eggtempera #boscastle

Because Egg Tempera is used on rigid gessoed panels the painting can be cut down to the dimensions that work best compositionaly. As this one has. #eggtempera #eggtemperapainting #landscape

An old one. This started as part of a large painting that I struggled with. There was one part I liked and kept . It seems appropriate for this time of year.

The big chill……Huge thanks to the Bruton Art Society council for selecting this watercolour β€˜Winter stream’ for their Christmas card. It’s from a chilly snow-covered walk in a Lake District temperate rainforest last year. On show at Adrian Hill Fine Art #snowpainting #watercolour #drawingartist

This is one for the Small Paintings exhibition in the Morningside Gallery. It is only 10 x 8 inches. Because Tempera painting is built up using lots of tiny paint strokes I find small paintings present a challenge. Each stroke is more visible. #eggtempera #morningsidegallery.co.uk
