At last, I'm getting some paintings online before taking to  Art Space Gallery, St Ives and several are not yet framed. Not complaining though, being busy has been great fun and a big boost to creativity.... Two slightly larger paintings are at the framers in readiness for submission to St Ives Society of Artists  Members Autumn Show..... Some time has also been spent priming fragments of lovely Arches watercolour paper - found under the bed (wish I was joking) - along with some approx A4 sheets of w/c paper, part painted around 6 years or so ago, I think?  The assorted A4 sheets will definitely be re-worked, possibly with watercolour/gouache/acrylic - the paper is just too good to waste! 'Tidal Push' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm, framed.   SOLD 'Bright, Lively, Sea and Sky'  oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm, framed.   SOLD 'Beach Colour Intense' oil on board, 13.5 x 13.5 cm, framed.   SOLD Paintings belo...

Sun and showers for the last few days, so pretty good so far  for the month of November.  Great cloud formations too. Six original seascapes in oil on board to show today.
