  • Painting a sunset heath scene in the Art Garden Studio, Shaftesbury, Dorset

    I am making the most of the sunlight in the studio today and my inspiration was Stoborough heath in Dorset. I used bockingford watercolour paper and a three colour technique. Wet on wet washes were applied and then a build up of colours for the bracken, gorse and grasses.

    Thorncombe woods nature reserve, Dorset

    I filmed this beautiful area of the Dorset heath near Thomas Hardy cottage a while ago and I am inspired looking at this video on my YouTube channel. I will have to go back again in springtime. I created the Rushy pond scene in watercolour which are on my Artfinder shop, now sold.

    Using diagonal brushstrokes in watercolour.

    A new approach to the way I apply the paint. I felt this urge to sweep expressively over the wet on wet washes. A method I will use more.

    Today was an exciting day as I was asked by the team at Fired Earth tile and paint shop if I would demonstrate a marble Christmas tile workshop.
