Join me this week in my art studio in Northern France where I continue to work on my two smaller abstract landscape paintings based on a visit to Richmond On Thames in London, where I painted en plein air. Using a combination of fluorescent acrylics overlaid with oil paints, I use the relationship between people and nature to inspire my art work, and am focussing on river paintings for 2023.

Join me this week as I show you the process I go through to start my large abstract landscape inspired by a visit to Richmond. Starting en plein air, I then take these studies back to my art studio, where I put paint onto canvas, having made more sketchbook studies and thought out some ideas as part of the creative process.

This painting, and others are part of my 2023 River series, which will be shown in my solo exhibition at The Old Cinema, Chiswick from 2nd November until the end of December.

Another busy week in my Cumbrian Studio as I continue to prepare for an exhibition at The Old Cinema in Chiswick in November 2023.

I have finished a small and a large abstract landscape inspired by the River Stour, near Canterbury in Kent and am stretching new canvases ready for the next set of paintings this week. Join me here to see the progress.

Join me this week in my studio in Cumbria as I embark on three paintings inspired by The River Stour near Sandwich, Kent. Using inks, fluorescents as well as more traditional oil paints I begin three sizes of abstract landscape. I am also getting a load more free giveaways of original paintings or drawings ready for my weekly competition - subscribe to my mailing list and follow me on Instagram to be eligible.

Join me this week as I embark on my busiest period yet! I now have confirmation of an exhibition in November of my large abstract paintings on the River series, at The Old Cinema, Chiswick. This means I am now flat out making paintings to be prepared for this solo art exhibition in West London. I am thrilled and frantic in equal measure!

Join me in my French studio this week as I finally finish all the paintings I have been doing inspired by a visit to Honfleur earlier in the year. These form part of my River Series of paintings for 2023, which will be on show as part of an exhibition in November in Chiswick, London.

So much has been happening in my studio this week, and also out and about!

I have finished a large abstract painting, started a medium sized one - I've got one painting in an exhibition in Sheffield and another delivered to the AKA Gallery in Cambridge!

And to top all that, I have been long listed for the VAA Professional Artists Awards 2023, so a fantastic week all round! Watch here to see what a week in the life of an artist looks like!

As usual, the week has been packed with painting, both out and about en plein air and in the studio.  The result is three paintings finished and ready for framing, as well as the three plant pots painted and ready for their plants!

You can also see that I have finally begun to tackle the large abstract painting inspired by my visit to Honfleur way back in January!!

Join me here for a whistle stop tour of the week, and to see the three paintings inspired by Sunbury On Thames, with a view of the Middle Thames Yacht Club.  These will form part of my November launch of my River series  - more details on that to be confirmed closer to the time.

Following on from last week's visit to Sunbury on Thames I have begun the three paintings inspired by this visit. With a particular focus on the Middle Thames Yacht Club at Sunbury, these paintings are beginning to take shape. Watch here for a glimpse of how they develop.
