This is where I take reference photos which might be suitable to paint.

This morning I dressed up for the occasion .

There is so much to photograph. But the first photo I took wasn’t for painting.

This was quite near my house. At the bottom of the pink brick road.

There are so many wildflowers .

I was beginning to think that I could just paint the countryside, but as I was by now at the top of the hill I carried on to look for little interesting scenes with sunlight and shadows. It was about 9.30am

I think I must’ve taken 30 or more photos so getting about 10 which I could paint is good going.

I’ve now drawn 4 of them onto my new home made canvases.

That will give me enough to do this week .

I have another local commission and possibly a portrait commission in the offing.

That was fun, putting the photos in among the text instead of at the end.

Now for wine and Rebus on youtube .

Cheers 🍷🍷
