That big bubbling sky against the little windmill and cottages and light meadow. Lovely by @chrisstephenart.bsky.social
Cley Marsh, Norfolk Watercolour 10x14”
Magnificent. I love the way the ibex looks as strong as the rocks around it. I wouldn’t mess with it 😊
I once saw a group of alpine ibex when hiking through #switzerland. It looked like they were watching me from above while also not really caring. So in this painting I wanted them majestic but also like a force to be reckoned with. #art #traditionalart #watercolor #wildlifeart #animalart #ibex

Had a go at @chrisstephenart.bsky.social brilliant demo on Smoke and Sails by Edward Wesson. Learnt so much looking at Wesson’s painting in my book and from the unpacking of how he achieved these effects in the lesson. I loved the light and atmosphere in this 😊. Can’t wait for next one!
In June there were clouds. Reference photo and my interpretation. Needed to up the contrast but husband liked the fact there was a pint by the tree 🤦🏻♀️. Love Wesson’s Albury Heath he doesn’t fuss about like me! Looking forward to learning from @chrisstephenart.bsky.social series on Wesson 😊
Very excited that my second hand book from Norwich city library arrived today! I love Wesson and thanks to @chrisstephenart.bsky.social for the recommendation and his series on Patreon where he unpacks how Wesson might have gone about some of these wonderful paintings 😀

Boats at Morston Watercolour on Bockingford paper 10x14”
Had a busy week so followed @chrisstephenart.bsky.social advice to paint for relaxation. I had a wintry photo of the little pond on the common and somehow it turned into a big pond with some shapes in the background but I had a nice couple of hours 😊
Lovely wispy clouds. Very excited to see some clouds again 😊
Beautiful painting by @edowatercolourart.bsky.social I love the peaceful feel and contrast between hard and soft edges, even in the shadows 😊

Beautiful vibrant sunny flowers - another stunner from @fredultramarine.bsky.social And don’t you just love the description 😊
I feel like the warmer it gets the more intense everything looks. Light sparkles in front of your eyes and colors burst in all directions. Which also is really fun to paint! So here are two flowers enjoying the sun. #art #traditionalart #watercolor #bloomscrolling #floralfriday #flowers #nature
Have been listening to this on audible. The insights into how the Maga movement came about are eye opening. Brilliant and absolutely terrifying
Stormy sky over field on the edge of the common.Inspired by @chrisstephenart.bsky.social demo called Al Prima where the sky technique was something I tried and @edowatercolourart.bsky.social demo on Wesson trees. Both great and so helpful for beginners like me. 😊 I do love a telegraph pole 🤣
Lovely paintings and narrative to go with them by @fredultramarine.bsky.social
Many friends of mine have parakeets and they're just so adorable. When painting this little guy I really wanted him to be in harmony with nature, as if covered by it like a blanket. #art #traditionalart #watercolor #parakeet #budgie #parrot #bird #birdart #wildlifeart #animalart #stunday
Watched demo by @chrisstephenart.bsky.social on loosening up and splashing water on stuff and having a bit of experimental fun. Field on the edge of common. Went a bit 🤪 😊

Always fascinating and important to contemplate that the entirety of human history is fundamentally a story of migration and amalgamation. We are all literally related, & any 'scientific' basis for racism is nonsense. A good Rutherfordian ending to our Saturday sessions. @adamrutherford.bsky.social
