Offshore, Watercolour 50x50cms £395
I did an online course with Newlyn School of Art, which was a generous treasury of experience and techniques, and also, eye-openingly, drone footage of much loved places. Since my mobility is currently challenged, this has been a blessing, and this painting was done trying to capture the movement in their drone footage
Oak and Beech, Watercolour 40×40 cms £295
I experimented with priming the paper first with gesso mixed with dolomite (like marble dust). It gave me a fascinating surface to work on. I am told that oak and beech don’t get on together: I think I could see that in the way their branches seem to push against each other

Tidal, Acrylic 50 x 50 cms £395
Exploring the interplay of light and shadow in a series of paintings, taking Turner as a strong reference point. Energy and movement became an essential part of this painting too.
