Reading Time: < 1 minutes We went to Lincoln this weekend, so the week was quite oriented to that. VArious of the colours are quite random, though the end of the week is inspired by Cross Country Trains, Lincoln, and the blue hour (from when I photographed more trains at …
Reading Time: < 1 minutes Slightly inspired by cooking and Skies this week. We made duck, and my partner didn’t get hers as all the children decided to have it, then didn’t eat it. I ordered Barnsley Chops in the Beck and Call, which were far rarer than asked for. …
Reading Time: 3 minutes Facebook knows… Unsuprisingly I have had about a million and a half adverts for dubious watercolour tutorial sites crop up on my facebook recently (if you want an interesting article by the way, have a look at this) and have mostly ignored these as attempts …

Reading Time: 2 minutes After the watercolour country lane tutorials I completed the other day I was inspired by the colours to work from some picture I took in Shipley Glen some years ago. I also wanted to play with the square format some more. Often the challenge in …
Reading Time: 3 minutes I have been taking some time out of manic unrestrained creativity to try and follow a few tutorials, after the success with the Winter Landscape I painted before Christmas. This has got me thinking a little about the development of my practice in watercolour which, …
