Another of your very good globe trotting paintings David that you do so well. I think we all go through that stage of feeling a little flat and searching for something to spark some enthusiasm. Sometimes I just paint something for fun and hey I'm back painting.

Agree with you, Chris. I am really finding it difficult in finding a scene I really want to paint!

Know what you mean but glad you posted this David

Love the cottages in this David and your usual skilful palette. We all wonder what to paint at times and have have blank moments. What helps me is changing the topic and medium, then I look forward to going back to my favourite medium of pastels.

Thank for your advice, Carole - I am definitely trying to think outside the box at the present time and come up with something different!!

A lovely watercolour David.

Nicely done David, we all go through this. I start with a small easily achievable one.

Lovely painting David 🖼

Thank you Denise,Romila and Faye for your kind comments and advice!!

Thank you, Spencer,.

Don’t feel lost David, memories are worth everything keep painting them. They are of great value; to all who remember Africa as it was.

Thank you for your very kind comment, David.

A really excellent painting David. You are not on your own in sometimes finding the enthusiasm to paint. I too go through ups and downs with my painting. I am like Carole in that I try a different topic or medium when I get like that.

A watercolour I completed a year ago of a scene in the Western Cape, South Africa. I am finding it difficult at present to build up the enthusiasm to paint!!
