  • Watercolour journal - exploring colour

    I have a beautiful book in which I do regular colour studies. In addition to noting the characteristics of particular colours, I also do some sketches using the colours noted on each page.

    Where does it all start?

    Every painting starts with an idea. It may be a colour, a story, or a feeling. My sketchbooks is where the ideas develop. Its also where I record my thoughts on new materials, line and tone. Here's my collection of current sketchbooks.

    My studio is a delight in summer when the garden is in bloom. There's nothing nicer than to throw the doors wide, put on some music and get my brushes moving.

    I have a seemingly endless (and growing) collection of brushes for my watercolour work. The collections for oils and acrylics are smaller, but catching up.

    A pair of Blue Tits nests right outside my studio. Every spring I have the pleasure of watching them flit in and out with tasty morsels for their young. Last month, this chap was super-busy with parenting duties.
