Refreshed after an early start....(attended 0530 Hrs Beltaine festival), just got down to a quick coffee, egg on toast, Blues FM on the computer (nice) and another look at this current painting....so on with the detail - not sure if the tiny brush strokes is tooo much detail yet, or maybe I should opt for a looser approach...stilll it sunny and warm outside....

Two days off, and a little time to let go abit and re evaluate things....(with a nice brew of Tea). So, a little sketchin to ease the fingers.
The purple/yellow sunrise is nearly finished, and the Bearded Tit (Post 507) has been rehashed in a new way, forget the watercolour, Im going all out on a larger Arcylic on Canvas Board......Scary I know, but sometimes yer just have to grab hold and go for the ride.....

And somthing from this mornings outing, without my reguler muse 'Woodie'. didnt fancy the long hike out, so made use of the Marshes nearer home and gave my box an airing...
Not the best result, but a bash at a grey and gluumy view of the local Power Station across the river. with the wreck of an old Fishing boat, up on the mud....
Learnt also that there isnt room on the lid for my regular 24 full pan box of colours, and will be better off with the smaller one, also how to wedge the water bottle in place without losing the contents....

Recent work looks good Andrew. I had to laugh at your problems with 'losing the contents', a typical problem of watercolorists in the wild I think. Also noted that you have the same problem with dog walkers that I do in our local woods, known to the rest of the world as an Important Bird Area, but known to locals as that place where you can let your dogs run wild.............
