Making progress

I had a couple of extra days off over the Bank Holiday, so I was able to develop my cafe painting. So far, it's going well. I had a crisis of colour when I realised that everything was looking rather pink but I've worked through that problem and am now able to get down to refining the structure and content.

Watch out for a photo in the next day or so.

New painting under way

I've just started a painting of a cafe scene in Guildford. Early days yet, as I've only sketched in the major components but I hope to have more to show after the Bank Holiday weekend.


I have the follow-up picture in mind already. It's a moody view of Guildford Castle with a tree (of unknown description) in the foreground casting some beautiful shadows.


I'd better press on with the cafe scene then...

Is this blog really worth it?

I'm seriously considering abandoning this blog. I don't get round to updating it often enough and I suspect that it doesn't'...
