'Wave after Wave' 12 x 24 inches, acrylic/oil on canvas

'Summer Night, St Ives' 12 x 24 inches, acrylic/oil on canvas. SOLD

I have been busy and have now opened an Etsy shop for my prints, later (much, much later) there will also be some small originals on board for sale. Audrey, who's based in Canada, has kindly featured Sea Blue Sky Abstracts on her blog - click the button on the side panel or the heading of this post to see more of what she does.

I have a sort of tick to do list - 1.blog, 2.Etsy shop, 3.personal website. Plus, there's also Folksy to consider! Life is never dull - it's a little too busy actually, there are many jobs that never get done!

I'm having fun working on two canvases for the next Art Space window theme - Collage. Bizaare, who's going to buy them? These are two pieces that might end up staying with me forever. I have the titles already - 'Floral' Feel Amazing' taken from a clothing label included in the artwork - we all want to 'feel amazing' right? And 'Floral Pedestal' because of the way that particular composition is evolving.

The accompanying images are two of my paintings on the 'Artists Palette' window theme, which continues at Art Space Gallery until 12 July 2009.

November 2021 - Small paintings on board.

November this year is fairly mild, quite wet and with more sunshine than we could have hoped for. And in the absence of gales (for now) the trees still have their leaves and the colours are amazing. The sea is spectacular at the moment too, with huge swells pounding ashore yesterday. Below are some paintings I completed earlier, scroll down to see more: Currently at Art Space Gallery, St Ives 'The Sea Brings Its Own Light' oil on primed board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD 'Surf Close By' oil on primed board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm. SOLD 'Coast and Pool' is on display at St Ives Society of Artists Annual Christmas Open Exhibition starting today, 13th November, 2021.

Collage two paintings 30 x60 cm

In this detail, the anaglypta, pink florist's cellophane and paint on canvas can be seen. Reddish/brown transparent glazing in the centre section and swirls of aqua opaque impasto on the right. This includes a piece of anaglypta from Carol Parsons painting class back in March, 2009? This particular piece of wallpaper has already been used to 'print paint to canvas'. Victoria Hilliard produces lovely ceramic pictures inspired by nature, including the portrayal of moths and butterflies. Would I have produced this collage if Tori were not a member of Art Space Gallery? Maybe not. Everything is 'grist to the visual mill' as far as artists are concerned. 'Floral - Pedestal' this painting just evolved. Fun, fun and more fun! 'Floral - Feel Amazing'. I love this artwork! My daughter's boyfriend bought her flowers, including old fashioned roses, which provided the inspiration for the flowers at the top of the painting and the cellophane wrapper
