#wip More roses started last week. I’d photographed these against a black background but life is black enough atm, thank you very much, so here’s a lighter interpretation!🌹

Chores galore this weekend-also got the filthy Flossie dog bathed yesterday & trimmed her today, am now itchy & a bit irritable 😬 Lit the stove & had a couple of hours to start this 🌹

Started painting a couple more roses this afternoon- ‘Ash Wednesday’ (this iPhones pic’s a bit too saturated). It’s a climbing rose that the deer haven’t found yet.😉🦌

#wip- I think I’ll be faffing with this for a while- in fact I think it’ll take many rose paintings to decide how I want to depict them, since it feels like a bit of a departure for me! Roses do cheer me up on a grey (freezing🥶) January day though😁🌹

Still thinking about this rose in monochrome, this time in oil🤔 (Looking at those values.) Every year I try to look after the rose bushes, every year the deer wreck them. This year I’m trying a homemade garlic drench which is truly potent! (On the roses, not the deer!) 😷🦌🌹

No human portraits in this lot, a selection of work from the unforgettable 2020🙄. I wouldn’t say I actively sought out the non human, but the circumstances of 2020 kind of threw other subjects in my path!
Wishing you all luck, love, & of course health in the coming year💕

It’s been a very busy Christmas period but time for a quick look back at some portraits from last year, before diving into this year’s projects. Looking forward to when portraiture can resume under more normal conditions. I have a feeling it’ll be a while...🤔

This is a bit better photo of this #wip than is shown in reels- but it’s barely been light today (unless you count light fog). Still, you get the idea. Apparently there may be some sun on Sat 5th Dec so I might try to take a better photo then (also I might have finished it!)
Charcoal and chalk on sanded paper- bit of a challenge but facilitates very intense blacks!

Spent too much of today cleaning the oven😫 Wonder if you can draw with carbonised chips?🤔😳
Getting nearer with this portrait of @susie_spearax I liked how her top echoed the berry tones of her hair so decided to go with the pattern detail.

Sunday ‘baking’ (polymer clay) because...I love to try new recipes!😂🤷‍♀️ I used to make lots of ‘food’ for my daughter’s dolls & creatures...suddenly got the urge to play again. I wanted some bigger than the 1:12 dolls house size readily available (1:6?) so had to make it. Also went for a run before breakfast 😮 #whevenami

Finally had a bit of time to spend on this little (20x20cm) still life. Apart from the fact that it shrivels up before your eyes, I find fruit to be a quiet & well behaved subject to paint.😉

Time for a brew & I thought I’d share this robin in progress (seems I’m a sucker for cute robins). I put up a new bird feeder which seemed to prompt the him(?) to up his territorial game. He’s wearing himself out chasing off anything smaller or the same size as himself🙄 There’s plenty of food to go round....🤷‍♀️

Where did last week go?!😮 Amongst other things, I’ve started on this portrait of @susie_spearax ,Therapy Services Manager for University Hospitals Morecambe Bay NHS Trust. She’s working extra long hours atm as Covid19 ramps up again. A great friend, Susie is a thoughtful & creative, multi-talented lady, at home sailing around the Scottish Isles, renovating her house, tending her veg or cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
The lighting for this portrait wasn’t ideal but since lockdown regs have tightened again, I’m using it as a challenge.
I’ve been making the best of the dry weather & done a bit of foraging too...the temperature has dropped & the wet stuff arrived yesterday!

#WIP Back on the easel today, “The Remedy” is still evolving! Not a good photo, I’m afraid, as lots of wet paint & poor light (dodged showers to take this) but you get the idea! I will finish the apron eventually....

A bit more on this one. Re: coconut feeders-when they’re finished, I fill the coconut shells with my own mix including beef dripping, sultanas, mealworms, peanuts, sunflower hearts and mixed birdseed. The birds seem to like it!

Hope you’ve had a good Sunday! No studio time for me today, I’ve been stripping furniture and I can see it’ll be a long project! Here’s a speedy time lapse video of my sketch of a robin done in @procreate app😊

Thought I’d just share this little video of Lola cat I did in Procreate. I’m still learning how to use the app, it’s quite addictive!

#WIP “Three’s a Crowd” - these conkers would keep rolling into little conversational cliques! Might try to do some more before they shrivel up.... They make good moth repellents and contain an anti inflammatory - you can buy horse chestnut gel for bruises & sprains. They’re supposed to be good at keeping spiders away, anyone had any success with this method? & no, I don’t think you’re supposed to throw the conkers at them!😂 Got some scary hairy arachnids around the house atm🕷😱
Unlike sweet chestnuts which are great in soup etc., horse chestnuts are poisonous....☠️
