It’s been a good day. Pleasurable shopping with Mum in the morning, while the sun was shining and the sky was a picturesque blue and white; and painting in shades of blue and white in my studio all afternoon.
Here are some before and after photographs of my new oil painting – notice the addition of birds and sparkles of light on the surface of the water. You may recognise the spot from previous photographs on my blog; it’s the River Teign as seen through the eyes of an artist (I hasten to add that at some point I leave the photograph behind and let the painting have the life, and colour, it dictates).
A beautiful piece of work, Sally. Well done!
It will look better framed. I have the perfect frame in mind. Keep a look out for a further photograph of it in its frame (if Chris can find the time to leave his building works on the house to make a frame for me!).
