Back from a lovely week in the Lakes and staying cosy whilst the storm rages outside. Lots of inspiration for painting but feeling low on energy, having caught a cold 🤧 but I had a go at a watercolour tutorial by Ian Scott Massie Did a little version to warm up, then a larger version on my posh 100% cotton paper. Ian has various online courses on the Happy House Masham website. I love his ethereal painting style and command of watercolours.
Last 2 pics of beautiful Ruby and Toffee relaxing with Chris. 🐾🐾🥰

An autumn trees experiment. 🍁🍃🍂
I've got an inspiring book by Alison C. Board 'Painting Landscapes - a creative approach in watercolour and mixed media' (Last 2 photos). So many exciting techniques to try. One of them is to bring a woodland to life by painting the dark areas between the trees, branches and foliage last, after you've painted the leaves. Known as negative painting. I love how this magically reveals the trees. Very satisfying.
Process video on the net post...
I realised too late that my trees are very regimented, with even gaps between each. 🙄 Next time I'll go for different heights, widths and gaps.

My painting from the previous reel.
Thanks to Lois Davidson for a lovely tutorial in her book Landscapes in Watercolour.
It was easy to follow and I loved the way the stages built to create a beautiful, serene landscape.
I used Winsor and Newton Professional watercolours and 300gsm cold pressed paper..
See my last post for a process video.

A process video of a summer landscape tutorial I completed from a gorgeous book by Lois Davidson called Landscapes in Watercolour.
I haven't painted many landscapes, I shy away from them as they are daunting! Having a tutorial to work through is do helpful for learning about the process and developing my skills. Really enjoyed this and going to try some more...maybe with an autumn flavour.
I used Winsor and Newton Professional watercolours and 300gsm cold pressed paper..
I'll post the book and a few photos separately.

Watercolour painting practice - irises.
Mary Woodin's delightful book 'The Painted Garden, a Year in Words and Watercolours' is full of gorgeous paintings. I had a go at painting these beautiful bearded iris flowers from the book. Her style is so delicate and loose, very inspiring.

Happy 1st of October! 🍁🍂🍄🍄‍🟫🍂🍁
Hoping for a sunny autumn of stunning colours and fab fungi.
I made a large calendar of my artwork to hang on our wall this year. I made some small desk ones too for friends, family and to sell. Not sure I've enough new work for a 2027 calendar yet!

Mini landscapes, 2.5 x 2 inches. I wasn't really feeling it today, a bad headache has got in the way of being creative, as it often does 🙄 but I had a play with these anyway. They're OK, I like the poppy field and dog walkers. It's all about having a go and developing your skills. I love the vibrant sky colours, using gorgeous Winsor and Newton Professional watercolours. 🎨 🖌

I'm doing an autumn craft fair tomorrow in Pateley Bridge Memorial Hall. It's certainly starting to feel autumnal here...and quite wet!
I'm always trying to fit in extra makes...I've carved some tiny leaf and toadstool stamps plus a little hedgehog. I'm printing them onto lovely wooden keyrings and will do some bookmarks too. 🍂🍄🌿 🦔
I've also printed lots of different coasters and given them each 3 coats of varnish to protect them from spillages. ☕️
Fair organised by Mandie Brown
