Big and small original paintings....

Had so much fun painting the first two artworks (shown below) which were prompted by the fear that continual painting in oil on small boards was making my work too tight.

Original oil paintings on board for March.

Still working on a Winter theme, but with some sun coming through. Sea has continued to be spectacular, with quite a lot of wind, but the weather is so much drier and brighter and the days longer.  Feels like Spring, as colour and flowers return to the garden.  A lovely blue sky as I write, cloudless! The newly completed paintings below will soon be framed and on display at Art Space Gallery .
