Somewhere in Bruges?

I selected this image because I was keen to try out a nw technique (new to me), and an architectural theme seemed to be a way to go about it…or so I thought!

I think this is an image I made in Bruges ages ago, and what I was trying was watercolour over pen, rather than the reverse, which is what I have always done. For this I had to buy some new waterproof fine liner pens, to avoid the ink bleeding into the colour. The pens (Steadler) are very good and I like them. Not expensive, I’m glad I acquired them.

St Giles Church, Norwich from Grapes Hill flyover

St Giles is a well known medieval church, and in an old and interesting part of the city. The usual view would be from the street in which it lives, surrounded by old town houses and a popular bistro style shopping area.

This view is not picturesque or romantic. It looks at the tower of the church across the backs of the shops and town houses, and takes in car parks and yards.

It was the ordinariness, and the rooftops that attracted me, but when I came to paint it, the sky was the thing that I very much liked.

Summer on Norwich Market

I didn’t think I would be painting any more scenes of Norwich Market, when I saw this one. I thought it was colourful and lively, and I liked the figures that made it interesting, so I have included it.

I have to say I have struggled with this and maybe it shows. I found painting all the background stalls with hanging clothes and piles of bedding, or whatever it is, rather tiresome, and it was more like colouring in than painting. The original that I was working from, was of poor quality which made it more difficult, and I felt that the whole thing was becoming messy.

I worked hard on the figures and the foreground, and I feel they were stronger, though far from perfect, and as such they do a job at holding the composition together.

Sunset at Llanelli

I must admit this is a most beautiful coastline and a glorious place to walk, cycle, or merely sit and paint. It offers just about everything, and as you can see, the sunsets are pretty formidable.

I thought this view particularly dramatic. It’s hard not to exaggerate the colours. I am very happy with the sky and sea, but struggled to get the rocks right.

Hope you like it

The Blue Boat

The Blue Boat on Acrylic Board (A3 Unframed)

This is another from the Cornwall sketch book. To be honest I’m not quite sure where it is. The sketch had come loses and separated from the book and there was no writing on it to state its whereabouts. I think it’s Mousehole, in fact I’m pretty sure it is, as I have done one or two views of the place, and this seems to match up, but in case I have got it wrong (won’t be the first time!), I’m calling it ‘The Blue Boat’, for pretty obvious reasons!

The Early Ferry; Lymington

Since the annual change of the clocks for winter, and the adjustment in times, especially on some brisk frosty mornings, meant that I have been privilege to witness some truly spectacular sunrises. I have stopped and stared for ages at the magnificence that surrounds me, so close to home. I often grab my iPhone and take some snaps.

Consequently I have collected a number of dramatic sunrise images. This paintitng is based on one of them.

I chose oils for this pic because I wanted to be able to make better use of the paints, and oils offer greater, more flexible ways of working. It’s only a small canvas, but I found the early morning light gave a strange eeriness to the glow trough the mist, and I couldn’t resist the composition I had snapped.

The early morning ferry leaving Lymington at sunrise

Every morning on weekdays, throughout the year at 0700 I undertake a daily walk.

On cloudless winter days, especially when frost abounds, the sunrise emerging over the Isle of Wight and then across The Solent is other worldly. Colours are too majestic to describe or capture, and the light is blazing, both in the sky and on the reflected water.

Thus to try to paint them can never do them justice. The differences between sunrise and sunset are, sunrise is easterly, whilst sunset is in the west, and during sunrise you watch the light and colours emerge, starting with a tiny speck and exploding across the horizon, whereas with sunset, you observe the light and colours fade and fail, finally disappearing  into the last atom of minute light.
