A new work at last!
IT has been so long since my last post BUT I have been travelling and recovering from hip surgery.
As promised this is a photo of the first step for my current painting - a bit difficult to appreciate because it is Atelier white gesso on a sheet of white watercolour paper.
Although it looks BLUE I can assure you it is WHITE!
Hopefully the pictures will improve as more washes are added.
Can you see that the gesso has been applied unevenly but not roughly?
I don't know what the painting will be yet but it will evolve gradually.
To finish off I will leave you with a beautiful photo that I took while travelling in South Australia in May. The location is Tractor Beach on the Eyre Peninsula and we came across this fabulous spot one late afternoon while searching for a campsite for the night. I am looking forward to painting this soon.
