Teacher, not artist. Teaching myself to paint since March 2020. It’s all about the process - a good outcome is a happy accident!

I had a week in the warm. Took my painting things, but really struggled to adapt to the brighter light and all my paintings came out quite heavy. Even though it’s sunny out this morning, this has been easier! 🪶🪶

It’s one of those days where patience is required so I took a pencil and paper - but not a rubber or sharpener! 🫣 🪶🪶

I’m completely out of practice with flowers. Did this for a friend. Still trying to work out whether I will hand it over!

A quick 45 minute watercolour-sketch this morning. Trying to keep the momentum going!

And it’s been another 21 days since my last effort. I’m definitely rusty, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this and as it’s still early in the day … who knows, I may have time for more… 🪶🪶

It’s been a while … 84 days to be precise. Needed a little reset this morning, so picked up the brushes. It’s always a little dodgy after a painting break to get back to where I was - this isn’t quite as bad as I expected - in fact, it’s perfectly not too bad 😁
