Great freedom about this Derek - really appealing.

Thank you Satu and Michael. Sat there with a pint and free to sketch initially the tractor, then it grew

Lovely and loose - great washes of colour. Super.

As well as the tractor, I like the way you've painted the hedge, with those dark squiggly lines. Also like the idea of the pint while sketching..lovely day!!

Thanks Thea and Louise, the squiggly lines are done where the washes are different or missing and add texture and if a pint is available, I'll try it but it's got to be good quality real ale

About the Artist

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
