April showers didn’t really happen, pleased to say a good dose of sunshine took its place. I write this with the sun warm on my face, looking at the beautiful colours which spring brings.

It’s been a month of more experimentation, working on mixed media paintings of different sizes and on different surfaces. Layers of paint put down with oil sticks, charcoal and anything else I might think might work in the mix. I like the way it’s working out and bringing  more colour to the work adds another dimension.

Apologies to the people who received their orders late. There was a glitch on the computer which meant I wasn’t being informed of your purchases.  Hopefully this has been fixed.

I’m happy to say the sketch books are quickly  filling up and a trip to London was an opportunity to stock up with lots more. Always a welcome sight to see a pile in the studio, for me it’s the equivalent of seeing the fridge full of all my favourite food.

Until next month keep well and enjoy the colours and warmth of May.
