After Simon Cowper’s demo on style used by Peter Cronin-trying to say more with less and work on shadows. Also really sinking in that darks need to be left until last 😊

@chrisstephenart.bsky.social had a go at the big sky. Love doing these. The glazing at the end for the shadows was tricky for me. What you said about not coveting it all up. Forgot that bit! Lots of brilliant learning 😊

@chrisstephenart.bsky.social really enjoyed learning how to do this lovely heading into winter scene. My trees grew away a bit. Thanks so much for a great lesson 😊

Love the descriptions that go with these lovely paintings. Deep warmth and vibrancy, a happy place 😊
When travelling I often end up gazing at beautiful #churches. Wandering around them makes you think about centuries of history those impressive buildings have encountered. So I wanted this painting to be whimsical with intense colors and lighting.

Dramatic big sky, flatlands, sense of stretching away forever as the cloud shadows sweep the land. Lovely. #watercolour #landscape #art

Another great demo from @chrisstephenart.bsky.social I’d been struggling to paint a picture of autumn tree on the heathland local to me and he only went and did a fab demo on patreon. Key message simplify and support the focal point. I need to get better at tonal values. Next aim 😊

As much a book about people, love and life as the twists and turns of the plot. I laughed and was moved by the gang in equal measure. Loved it 😊

Have read all the department Q books and this one was a brilliant twist. But what does the future hold for one of my favourite detectives and team 🤷♀️

Another awesome painting. Makes you want to head down that road towards the light 😊

The light and sense of space- clouds are like distant mountains. 🤩

So taken by this painting by @chrisstephenart.bsky.social and the lesson that I had another go. Think I got the cottage better this time 😊 learnt that loose watercolour does not have to be fast and loose. Phew!

Very much enjoyed the mindfulness of trying this lovely watercolour from a lesson by @chrisstephenart.bsky.social on Patreon. A beautiful way to paint although the Norfolk cottage challenged me! Need another go as lost some of the delicate colouring 😊

Such a beautiful autumnal landscape you can almost smell the trees and ferns as you walk along the path into the misty distance # watercolour#art#landscape
