Magnolia and sake cup

/0 Comments/in , /by

Last month, my subject at Coton Manor for April was the striking magnolia that grows by the lake. The month it just had to be bluebells so yesterday I took myself off to the bluebell woods there which were looking fabulous. I did a quick oil sketch and shall be painting the bluebells later in the week. Here’s a little oil sketch of the magnolia and I’ll post a photo of the plein-air I did yesterday, tomorrow when I’ve sorted out a technical glitch.

Listening to Bob Dylan on the Ipod and painting……..what more can a girl want. The sun is shining but I can’t be tempted.
Plums today.

A bit overcast today but I hear Britain is waking up to the big freeze so shouldn’t complain. Not a lot of light for painting though so have been doing admin. Here’s one from earlier this month.

That fooled you, you thought I had painted some rubber gloves didn’t you? That’s an idea though. These were purloined from the compound borders…it’s all a bit corporation, a little bit parks and gardens for my taste but these were a goer with my favourite blue.

More white!  Don’t worry, I will soon be running out of white paint. After painting this morning, I did a strenuous hour of yoga burn….ouch! I’m off for a massage, the weekend starts here! Have a good one. You may not here from me next week as I have a large portrait to work on.
