Cotswold Edge

Since moving here I have found it difficult to find a way to represent this landscape, having been used to 'wilder' places. Sketching and painting 'on the spot', feeling the shape and texture of the land, seeing it in winter, moving away from 'all the greens' has allowed me to make a start.
Lately I have found a quick sketch from memory of a glimpsed view has helped in making a personal image.

Solo show in Stroud

I am getting ready for my second show in Stroud, taking posters around, deciding on work, making cards, framing, lots of other jobs. As with previous shows it seems like loads to do but it is rewarding to have positive feedback from everyone, meeting new people who often become friends.
