My painting muscle needs exercise…

From now on I hope to do a little bit of painting or drawing every day. I’ve lost my edge; if you don’t practice, your painting, drawing or whatever becomes stilted and the style suffers. I find it doesn’t take long to get it back though, and the more you do the more you are repaid for your efforts.
These are not finished by any means but I thought I’d show them as cheerful proof that I am at least trying. I think I’d like them to be much more stylised, so we’ll see where I go with this idea. They are painted on salvaged birch wood ply. What will I do with them? That is the last thing in my mind. Trust me, you’ll be the first to know.
Great blog! I am a tomboy too – always have been and always will be. There is nothing better to do than get dirty. There is no sweeter smell than horses and puppy breath.
I just love these birds. You are a gifted painter.
