Mud bath

My exhibition in Putney with Paul Curtis NEAC is finished now but was a great success. I was so busy with the house move that I didn't get a chance to blog about it so I'll try to make up for that now and show you some of the work from the show. 

This is one of the large studio cow paintings that sold. I found I couldn't get a good photo of this piece but it gives you an idea anyway. It excites me the way the cows become a part of the mud, and the light catches the wet surfaces with little glimpses here and there in the darkness. I look forward to returning to this subject, I just need to find a local dairy farm willing to help out an artist.

New studio in the countryside!

Most beautiful view framed by the large door!

Less than a week ago we moved house and moved studio so we've had a fair busy old time of it, packing and organising things for weeks and weeks on end. Now we are finally here and although we  are going to be living in chaos for a fair while longer we are enormously happy with the new place and on a sunny day there is nowhere we'd rather be! We have moved less than a mile away, only to the next village so we have the advantage of knowing the whole area and yet still there is something exotic and holiday-like about our new situation and we are loving the views.

I'm feeling very inspired and can't wait to get those paintbrushes moving again, and soon I'll have to get into a new routine that allows me to get my work done alongside getting jobs done for the house and studio.


Tuesday

Sunday - I have some floor space! Yay!
