Fabulous stuff Shirley… what size are you working on for these plein air paintings?

That’s lovely

This is excellent I love the colours you have used.

Thank you! Alan, it is 30.5 x 22.5 cms. I was enjoying bigger canvases 60 x 40 cms, but now gone back to smaller ones. Bit more practical for me. I have got two big ones waiting for something though!

Thanks Shirley, I really struggle to paint that small, I don’t know why! But you’ve cracked it for sure…

Playing with this picture, which began as a Plein air in the morning some time ago, when there was a wonderful mist.
