STUDIO UPDATE: Spring!

I'm loving this time of the year here in Australia, spring has sprung! The garden has come alive, so many plants are flowering.  It's got me all inspired. I'm so fascinated at the way things grow at the moment and watching nature transform daily really intrigues me.


I want to do a larger still life with a few different flowers in a vase. Above is a practice piece to get the hang of painting a rose.  I'm enjoying this colour combination, that yellow really pops!


In other news, this week over on my Facebook page, the 1,500 likes mark was reached, which means it's GIVEAWAY time! I'm gifting the above painting to an active Facebook fan. All you have to do for a chance to win the painting is like, comment or interact in any way with the page over the next two weeks. If you do, I'll put your name in a hat (or such) and draw the prize on Friday 27th September. 

Visit the page here: www.facebook.com/tracey.potter.artist


Also, I  dropped these four paintings (above and below) into a handmade boutique yesterday. The store is called Handmade Highstreet, they have all sorts of beautiful wares.


Last but not least, Here are the past two Flashback Fridays!


 Happy Paint Party Friday and wishing you all a productive and creative week.  x

  3. So much beautiful art here and all so varied! Your yellow rose is amazing and looks wonderful in front of that gorgeous aqua/turquoise background. I love the randonmess of the pretty girl cuddling an octopus and your birds at the end are so much fun!

  9. I agree, the yellow pops out beautifully from that turquoise/teal back ground, and the roses are wonderful. I love this time of the year too - finally, the summer heat is over, and air becomes fresh and cool, and the wind clears the mind :). I'm looking forward to seeing your flower painting!
