This piece is made with a mixture of acrylics and oil pastel.

I made it in memory of my father.

It is 30x30cm

Winter artworks: Colour in the Dark
(Anita Sethi / Art UK)

A beautiful archive of paintings themed around winter, and how they powerfully capture the wide-ranging palette of the natural world during this season.

New year to me has for the last four years meant to draw life models from morning to midnight.

If you like to try it, see my post below with Deryck's session with 21 models!

Here's Anastasia, made by Helga Pikal in Ireland. She's executively created.

She is sitting next to a painting done long time ago by a family friend.

The painting is of the landscape, where my dad lived.

I lost my father this year. Anastasia is here too keep me company now.

We had power cut all day, so I couldn't heat my studio (or house).

Being without electricity and internet made this day longer than a normal day somehow.

Cooked on emergency gas cooker.

Listen to the snow moving under my feet.

And the light! The snow lights all up.

A perfect November day.

The sun the rain the earth
have done their best to serve me
But like a leaf a wave
I am only here temporarily

My mind is a device of all this trickery
the source of it’s own anxiety
connected to all the things
Here and yet to be

and the wind was here before me

Once a dream time vision
Mesmerising blur of beauty
Of all things lost and enchanting

Trance like fog
Stillness yet always moving
Sun’s piercing rays
Sometimes murderous
Sometimes soothing

On my break, in my painting dress. Full of cuddles.

Their presence nourish me. A complete moment.
