Cirrus Sky. The prompt for #21daysinmyartworld t

Cirrus Sky.

The prompt for #21daysinmyartworld today is Sold! Uncannily, this mixed media and collage piece sold just last week.

I was delighted to hear from someone who’d bought a painting at @sussexartfairs Brighton back in 2019, to say they wanted this and another painting. I was a bit worried about postage as this is behind glass, but copious amounts of padding meant they reached their destination intact.

How lovely to think that three of my paintings now live in the same home in Brighton.

Exciting first marks. #21daysinmyartworld prompt

Exciting first marks.

#21daysinmyartworld prompt today is ‘Process insights’.

As you know, I’m still very much exploring different processes and developing my techniques, but one thing I absolutely love doing is starting off with free expressive marks in charcoal and inks. I always found it fiddly trying to use charcoal on its side to create broad marks, but I was recently introduced to this giant charcoal stick by @paulinejansart and I am completely in love with it.

It creates such beautiful subtle marks which contrast brilliantly with the darker more intense marks made by the compressed charcoal. And spraying it with a mist of water makes really yummy runs and blurs.

This is the moment I rediscovered my love of art.

This was my ‘turning point’ for #21daysinmyartworld set by @taraleaver

My husband bought me a weekend with the amazing @helenelliottart on her #creativeme workshop. A whole weekend completely immersed in exploring intuitive responses to colour and marks, under Helen’s expert guidance. It was a weekend of complete and utter joy.

Coming at a time when circumstances in my professional life had taken a significant nosedive, and stress levels were almost intolerable, this workshop became pivotal in planting the seed for doing something about improving the quality of my life. I worked in this toxic environment for another three years, you know what it’s like: it’s what you’re accustomed to right? But when my health began to suffer, I finally made the leap of faith, and resigned from a job I’d believed in passionately for 29 years, to make art my focus.

When I reflect back on those years, the way that weekend workshop came when I was at such a low ebb, the serendipity of it, still blows me away.

Just think: if I hadn’t done Creative Me, if I hadn’t met @helenelliottart , I wouldn’t have left education, and I wouldn’t be loving being an artist now. I count myself so very very blessed. The universe is an incredible thing. ❤️🥰❤️🥰

I love it when a plan comes together! Echoes of t

I love it when a plan comes together!

Echoes of the Glen is framed in a beautiful contemporary off-white frame and hung in this lounge setting. I’m amazed at how small it now looks in situ: at 160cm wide it’s the biggest painting I’ve done and I was a little worried it might be a bit big for this wall. But no- it’s just right. Woohoo!!

I did do this piece for us and we love it, but am thinking about putting it on my website for sale. I’m going to sit and enjoy looking at it while I decide!!!! 😂😂😂

Artist’s selfie for the camera-shy artist!

Day 10 of @taraleaver ‘s #21daysinmyartworld initiative is a selfie!! I am properly stupid in front of a camera, so what’s the solution???? Hide behind your favourite painting tools of course, and hide your Covid-hair under a buff!!

‘Where the art happens’ for #21daysinmyartworl

‘Where the art happens’ for #21daysinmyartworld.

My little studio is a converted old stone pig sty! My husband took on the challenge: insulated it, refloored and painted it, installed a wood burner where I can keep a kettle on the boil (an absolute Godsend), special daylight lights and most recently my painting wall. It was jokingly referred to as the Broncave and the name has stuck!!

It is truly one of my happy places: I feel so lucky to have this wonderful cosy space where I can immerse myself in creativity. Sometimes, just sitting in there makes me smile.

Inspiration: day 8 of #21daysinmyartworld

The view from my home, my favourite mountain, Picws Du, at the western edge of the Brecon Beacons. It’s a magnificent escarpment with sheer scree, topped with stunning moorlands and limestone pavement, contrasting so strikingly with the lush green Tywi Valley below.

This wonderful view is my inspiration everyday: it’s never the same twice. It fills my soul and brings me joy, and I’m so grateful for it.

Do I have a favourite painting? Tricky one! #21d

Do I have a favourite painting? Tricky one!

#21daysinmyartworld posed this on day 1. I find my favourite painting changes as I learn more about art and artists, and with my mood. So I’ve chosen this piece called The Hollow Hills, which I’ve recently fallen back in love with. It was one of the first times I’d used oil paint and glazed over acrylic base layers. I think I t’s the green-gold and the feeling of the wind whipping across the hilltops that has drawn me back.
