Two more finished paintings and very happy with "The Hidden Garden", which was first titled " Quick, get dressed, before your father sees us". The feedback wasn't great and took the attention away from the actual painting. It reminds me a lot of my first paintings on Felt. Great contrast and depth and gives the feeling that the viewer is the one hiding.
The images aren't great of colour, struggled with the camera to get a good representation. Should leave that up to the professionals!
The Hidden Garden, Acrylic on Canvas, 200 x 100cm.
Three more weeks before the opening and feel I have improved on the last show. Started thinking about what is next, to avoid the "post exhibition blues". Having ideas floating around about picturing old legends, stories, historic events. Following trails, etc.
Love the old botanical drawings and perhaps will work on water colours for a while.
"Where the Shadows Play", Acrylic on Canvas, 120 x 180 cm approx.
