October and I’m in the mood for a studio tidy up and refresh. It’s been five years of happiness since my studio was built at the top of the garden. And to celebrate I’m having a special ‘give away’ of an original piece of artwork.
It seems some of my newsletters are being sent to spam and I don’t want you to miss out on the opportunity to win so if they are not coming into your in-box you need to check your spam box/promotions box or junk box/folder.
The draw will be done at random from my mailing list so if you’d like to be in with a chance of owning a framed piece of my artwork then do subscribe to my mailing list. To do that either click on the link below or scroll to ‘Contact – Great ways to keep in touch’ and add your name and email address to receive the occasional newsletter. Good luck!
The draw will take place on Monday 4th November.

As part of this celebration I invited photographer Charlotte Bromley Davenport to take some photographs of me in the studio. It was a wonderful fun experience and I’m delighted with the results Charlotte managed to create.

In the studio I’ve been focused on working in a series of four paintings at a time so when displayed they will compliment each other. This seems to be a lot harder than it sounds as I’m a bit impulsive when creating and spring from one colour to the next. Although my colour palette is mainly blue I do love to experiment with sunset colours. Working as a painter there is never enough time to discover all the beautiful colours one can find just by using a limited palette. I recently went on a colour day workshop with artist and tutor Martin Laurance at Anteros in Norwich, it was a great day and I learnt so much from his knowledge of colour.
Having taken the Creative Visionary Project (CVP) course with Nicholas Wilton I feel my art is continuing to develop and is moving towards abstraction. I don’t really consider myself as an abstract painter but I do find it engaging and meditative to do.
Out and about this month in-between the rain showers!
Thank you to Reverent Rachel Alexander for inviting me to speak about Art & Faith at St. Mary’s Church in Snettisham. Public speaking really does require a leap of faith!
