Rainy day today so spent my time in more adventures in gouache..I used a picture I took of Murray some years back at the Plantagenet hotel which had interesting reflective notes in the glasses. I’ve been practicing applying gouache as a wash - more of a watercolour texture than so opaque.

“A Study in Nature” is at Denmark Arts, a window on my mind as I journey through the seasons and find fungi, flora and critters that have captured my imagination. Captured and interpreted in gouache, graphite and acrylics.
On Tueday, Wednesday and Thursday from 11am till 4pm

Wonderful afternoon at Atelier Arcadia’s “Portraits from Life” at the Albany CWA drawing none other than Murray Rose-Jones,portrait ‘25 and I’ve proven that I can draw Murray as something other than an angry gnome! 2 hour portrait from life!
