What a wonderful painting - and so quick!!!

Thanks for the comment David. I myself was more than happy with the outcome. No time to fiddle! Just push on and see what happens! It’s taken me many years to realise that I seem to get the best results when I use a big brush, plenty of water and when the pigments in my palette are moist. I paint to please myself - but it is very satisfying when my painting is appreciated by someone else!

I took the opportunity provided by a break in the weather to draw this sketch from outside the village hall where we were painting - the colour was splashed on indoors. The job was done in just over 30 minutes.

I’ve been drawing and painting for a long, long time. The first picture I have still in my possession is dated November 1939 and 83 years on I’m still at it! Keen on art at school and would have dearly liked a job with an art connection- I had hoped to get into architecture, but it did not happen.…
