Sunshine, Flowers, Inspiration, my Palette and a Painting Update.

Today I woke up to SUNSHINE! We have been having a stormy cold rainy day followed by a bright sunshiny day of late, the plants are loving it and so am I.

Some Herbs I'm growing on the windowsill.

A Vase of Flowers, 

I'm thinking of the Vases in Saragen't paintings,

and may add something similar to my portrait.

 

 

Some inspiration, love the colours and the images,

been flicking through these as I work on my latest painting.

My Palette. I've got the thicker Gel Medium out, 

its great for thick buttery paint application.

 

I've added a room to give the image more depth, 

I know I've only got a few days, what was I thinking, hey?

I was thinking of tying it back to the Sargent painting called  'Ena and Betty Daughters of Asher and Mrs Wertheimer' and giving the painting more meaning and interest. I know it's risky this late in the game, but I'm up for a challenge and I think it will make the image.


Well time to pick up the paintbrush again,  wishing you a productive day!
