Foggy old day

After a week or so of lovely sunshine and crisp mornings, we had a day where the mist never lifted and it stayed dull and mild. No bright light and shadows for inspiration, just very 'flat' out there today.
The snowdrops are all out though, giving a splash of brightness, they seem to 'glow' more on a dull day or at evening time.
It will soon be Spring, the birds are singing, and I am thinking ahead to Bluebell time..... gorgeous!

Painting from photographs

Having looked through my photographs of towns visited, I came across one of Swansea Marina and thought I would do a painting of it. I loved the people sitting out in the sunshine eating lunch.
Painted quite loosly and unprecisely but gives a good impression of the day, the atmosphere and you can tell exactly where it is.
I enjoy painting with bright sunlight and shadows in my work,,,, always cheery! 

I must add new work to my website, the days never seem long enough..........................
Working hard getting paintings ready for my forthcoming exhibition at Aberglasney Gardens.
