30 in 30, Day 10

Evening Sail, Blakeney, 10" x 12" oil on canvas board

Following on from yesterday where I blended the colours, I decided to go for a more colourful subject. Still blending , I used a lot more colours. I liked the colours I was able to mix using Michael Harding's Brilliant Pink

30 in 30 Day 9

Moulton Sunrise 10" x 12" oil on board

Up with the sparrows this morning to get this one done. I enjoyed the challenge of mixing the colours and blending them. Not a technique I normally use, I learnt a lot from this one and will have another go at a similar subject soon.

30 in 30 day 8

Broken Sunset Vapor Trails 8" x 10" oil on board £90

There is still some work to be done in the foreground of this painting. I loved the colour of the vapour trails left by the passing aircraft, the purpley blue looked magnificent against the orange of the setting sun

Blakeney Sunset 8" x 10" oil on board £90

 I kept the foreground down to simple dark washes for this picture. Not really finished but it is as far as I can go on this, a rather busy day.

Day 4 30 in 30

Pink Sky and dark Clouds 8" x 10" oil on board

I was in the studio at 7am this morning and did this from an old photo. Wasn't entirely pleased with it and intended having another go but events of the day rather took over so here it is - no. 4
