Evening, towards Great Cheverell My attempt to capture what seems like contradictory yet harmonious colours and light at sunset, where the sky goes from orange/gold through a pale green blue to a darker purer blue. The light changes so quickly. Oil on Panel 30 x 23cm

Evening clouds over Cheverell
Had trouble deciding which direction to set up the easel, everything looked so interesting. Chose south west, a quick burst of painting as evening drew in. Got pretty cool in the wind and regretted wearing sandals! Then my bike had a puncture so had to walk home, lucky it wasn't far.
Oil on panel . 30 x 25cm.

'Reflections of Water Reeds' (Oil on panel 30x x 24cm) Jonathan and I went painting yesterday, whilst Mary went cycling alonside the River Avon in the Woodford Valley, nr Salisbury. Great to see the sun again.
ST BRIDES BAY (Pembrokshire)
Painted this from Broad Haven beach, looking into the sun, pretty blinding and my glasses Reacto lenses went very dark giving me false colours - so had to paint a lot without the glasses. Rather disorientating. Waves need more practise, they're a bit static here.

Tractor tracks in a wheatfield. 21.5 x 15 cms. Oil on card. Was hoping to practise on more green wheat, but suddenly it is ripened after the recent heat wave so will have to do gold wheat if I can get the time before it is harvested. This week is heavily booked!
