St Ives

Mousehole

And the sun comes out.

Mousehole

Working on a commission for a Mousehole dark night time painting. Very fitting for this gloomy weather although there are sparks of sunshine and I hope to get out tomorrow.

Godrevy Still Life

Sticking with the still life. This is probably my favourite way of working. It`s a 16 x 16-inch canvas (No.166 oil primed linen from Bird and Davies.) which I stretch myself.

I like them because I love working in oil and 16 x16 inches is handleable and I can get the gist of it in a day and if it isn`t working you can just rub off.

Penzance

I've been wanting to do this spot in Penzance for ages so managed to get down later in the afternoon to get something started. Will let it dry for a couple of days and get back there.

St Ives. Oil on Canvas 16 x 16 inches

Finished this today. 

Started the week with this rather gloomy acrylic on board. Must be the miserable weather.

St Ives

I went to St Ives today in the rain and sat in the car and did this Plein air oil 

Just got to put in some seagulls and birds in.Stonechaffs and Pipits ?

Marazion

St Michaels Gigs

Decided to go back into acrylics today and I am working much more successfully as you can see with two good ones coming on well. I have noticed though that what I have learnt from oils is helpfull so all is not lost.
