I think that's my springtime fairytale forest scene completed. Had no idea where I was going with it. Just started with some colours mixed together on the paper. All I wanted to paint was somewhere happy to make your mind wander when you looked at it. What do you think?

It's at that 'ugly' stage. The one where I contemplate giving up and starting something else. 🫣😆

Started a new wee project. Background yesterday, tree today. Loads more to do, but I'm stopping to go for a walk while the sun is shining. I must be the slowest artist ever. Maybe I should try oils again, then I would have an excuse! 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

My first full painting using gouache - a little escapism doodle. I like the boldness of the colours (but not the staining of my palette!). I like that you can layer it better than watercolour yet still use it like one if you want to. Lots to like, but lots to get used to as it just feels and acts differently😊🎨🌌

A quick rainy afternoon squiggle to distract me from the weather! All Saints Church at Hinton Ampner. It was so pretty over Easter, especially with the daffodils and blue skies. I have lovely memories of it now so I may do a 'proper' sketch of it and also the main house later and crack open the watercolours! 🤔😊🌞🎨

Out and about today, looking for inspiration. The birdsong is beautiful, I could be out all day listening to it, but time to head back, clean my boots and grab a coffee. Hope you are taking some time for yourself today 🥰
