New paintings and regular art updates.
Getting there. I can see my mistakes on this. I need to get the shape right. Maybe sort the tyres out, one side is wider than the other. I might calm the pale green down.
I have these rushes of painting. Something boils over and I have to paint. I have just started another one. Something a bit different, blue and black diagonals. That’s going to be an abstract. I’ve got to finish off tonight as I’m selling these on a little stall tomorrow! Eek!
I’m painting tiny pictures, flowers, a cherry, vases, lots of ideas. I didn’t realise how much my shaking arm would affect me. I usually use an easle these days but you have to hold the tiny canvases. I want to do quite a few little paintings, but they have to be of good quality. Wish me luck..
I’m doing a craft fair soon but I haven’t replaced the paintings I have sold with new ones. I need to get my act together and paint. I just feel a bit down. This has been going on for weeks. I think its artists block? I know why, lots of thoughts on my mind and anxieties, so I prevaricate because I don’t want to get things wrong. I’m fine when things are going OK, but sometimes I let things get on top of me. I will try and sort my mind out this week! Then hopefully I will have new work to show you…..
For the second time in a few months we are holding an exhibition at the Whitfield centre in Newcastle under Lyme.
The Group Exhibition is on in three weeks. If you are around come along and see some lovely artists and their work.
I will be doing some painting for another craft fair the week after. I hope to be doing small paintings of things like bees and flowers. I generally find images I’m interested in and work from them off my phone photo gallery.
