Welcome to my blog I'm an artist working in watercolour and acrylic in both Landscape and Seascape paintings.
I sold this original watercolour painting at an exhibition recently, need to get some more done now,I have my main summer exhibition in the summer and it is the 100th Anniversary of the Society being founded so need to create something special. What is puzzling me is where does all my time dissappear?
This painting was sold at an exhibition recently, need to get some more done now, as my main summer exhibition will be upon me before I know it, what puzzles me is where does all my time go?
The sale of two original paintings this week cheered me up, but reminds me I need to create some more work to satisfy demand, more can be seen on my< a href="http://www.artyman.co.uk"> website </a>, which reminds me I must do some updating there.
The weather has been excellent this week as well, so as my wife was out for the day I took the opportunity to visit a local Nature Reserve to take some wildlife photographs. I found this little Egret in one of the smaller stretches of water on the reserve doing a spot of fishing.

Following a recent visit to the Titchfield Haven Nature Reserve I was inspired to create this acrylic painting. The three ducks came in to land so managed to grab a quick photograph, which has resulted in this painting.
Extremes of weather this week with high levels of snowfall has created chaos through large parts of Britain. It seems we are not used to this and the Government seem incapable of organising things, I'm sure all their hot air could have assisted in solving the problem! It did give me the chance to get some snow photographs, you have to grab the opportunities when they come. These are of Portchester Castle at the top of Portsmouth Harbour, an original Roman fort which was extended by the Norman when they paid a visit just after 1066.
Too cold to paint outside, watercolours and freezing temperatures don't go well together.
