WATER WEEK

The weather was all over the place this week so I stayed in the studio, painting frames for an upcoming show at a local restaurant. I started the week with a dull still life painting, then some lads carrying a boat and next started experimenting with some new subject matter. I recently came across the yachting action shots of the American artist Willard Bond and decided to have a look at similar subject matter. My goal is to combine his subject matter with the 'wave handling' of Gary Long and the painterly strokes of Paul Lemon. Mmmm maybe plein air isn't so difficult after all!!
