‘Llawenydd a rennir’ (Shared Joy) During the

‘Llawenydd a rennir’ (Shared Joy)

During the @tywi_valley_open_studios event this year, I asked all my visitors to take part in a collaborative painting, which I then resolved into a finished painting.

I decided to use repeated glazes rather than thick layers of colour, so that everyone's marks could be seen: even if the colour has been changed, all the marks are still visible either as textural aspects or part of the colour palette.

After two weeks of glazing; tweaking; rotating; walking away and coming back to see what jumped out, this piece is now finished. What began as a fun way to talk about art, to excite and inspire, has resolved to become an abstract landscape, called 'Llawenydd a rennir', or 'Shared Joy'.

The texture of the painting surface is an incredible reflection of all the excitement and energy that went into it.

I love this painting because it has something from everyone in it: it's no one person's style; there are echoes of all of our voices within it. I think that makes it really special.

Well here she is all finished.

Not sure what to call it yet: it’s important the name evokes the feel of the mountain moorlands here in West Wales, so I’ll take my time to make sure it fits.

What a great feeling! I started this piece before

What a great feeling!

I started this piece before our summer travels and knew it wasn’t quite done, but just couldn’t see what it needed. Thankfully I didn’t faff with it as we went away, so it’s been sitting on the studio wall for a few months.

Today I walked into the studio with the intention of continuing working on the new pieces I’ve just started, but I suddenly knew what to do with this one. It’s come to another pausing point and I’m leaving the studio so I don’t faff!!! I know if I stay here and try to push to completion I’ll wreck it.

Feeling excited for tomorrow, and getting together with it again. 🤞🤞

Happy International Artists Day. After a couple

Happy International Artists Day.

After a couple of months away from the studio travelling, I’m just getting back in to the groove with paint again, and looking forward to creating a new series of work from all the inspirational landscapes I’ve seen, and catching up with all the goings on in @artcanorg

I love the vibrant pops of colour in this piece based on our Black Mountain, it’ll be interesting to see what palettes emerge after our wonderful trip to the deserts of Namibia. Watch this space 😉

What a fantastic learning adventure. Four days u

What a fantastic learning adventure.

Four days under the expert and supremely patient tutelage of Sarah Jane Brown of @sjbfineart being shown how to ‘get to grips with oils’.

What a steep steep learning curve with so much laughter and joy along the way.

I have to admit, that whilst I know I am at the very beginning of learning how to use this medium effectively, I think I might be a convert already. The subtleties of depth and nuances of colour, and the way they behaved on the supports was absolutely enchanting.

And all the different techniques!!! Wow. Wow. And wow again. Can’t wait to get practising and experimenting.

Thank you Sarah for an absolutely brilliant four days.

LOVE LEARNING! Allá Prima ‘direct painting’

LOVE LEARNING!

Allá Prima ‘direct painting’ while the first glazes on the Grisaille dries!!! OMG : painting a painting in one sitting- literally- layers aren’t drying inbetween!!! Trying to remember warm and cold pigments, transparent and opaque, values and saturations…… whilst it’s all still wet. Mustn’t make sludge… mustn’t make sludge (unless of course you need sludge!!!😉😉).

Even more respect for plein air artists right at this moment!!! 😂😂😂

@sjbfineart is making this VERY steep learning curve so much fun.

Fantastic arty day yesterday. Day one of the oil

Fantastic arty day yesterday.

Day one of the oils course with my dear friend (and awesome artist) @sjbfineart in her amazing studio in St David’s.

Sketching in the glorious sunshine down at Solva, followed by a huge learning curve getting my head around solvents, oils, fat, lean, imprimatura, camaieu and grisaille techniques: and wonderful effects we got- ooh gorgeous. What amazing fun: and capped off perfectly by an evening swim in the sea in the golden light.

Thanks Sarah for such a great day. Can’t wait to see what we get up to today. Excited artist at work!! 😃

‘Ynni’r mynydd’ has arrived safely at its new home.

Thank you @2602brenda and Julian for your kind words and your constant support and enthusiasm for my art. I love having you in my tribe. ❤️❤️
