Painted on Saturday afternoon...this picture is about dry and

will be packing its bag for a flight to USA.

It began life as a landscape but evolved into a favourite subject...

Saltwater marshes on the East Coast.

Rubbing back and pushing the oils about made this piece.

Paintings need not always be about bright colour.

The landscape is made of many hues.

Texture can also play a part in suggesting a scene.

Rubbing back and scraping make marks to depict the worked land.

Eternally.

I really enjoy painting on watercolour paper.

Using oils and finishing with a light coat of varnish,

 the work may be framed without glass.

  A stiff backing board helps to support the picture.

The first of some smaller pieces.

It was overpainted on a warm under-painting.

Scrubbed on colour makes a hedgerow...loose and gestural.

New studies drying on the easel.

Underpaintings using a rub-out technique...

The work on the left is demonstrating a rub-out on a white gessoed board.

Using Burnt Sienna and Phthalo Blue I scrubbed the hues onto the surface.

A rag wrapped around my finger shows how some 

of the paint removed creates a possible land/seascape. 

 The work may evolve into something

totally different but for now it gives me ideas.

The smaller piece on the right has soft violet over orange for a sky.

Dark green using a mix of Phthalo Blue, Winsor Yellow and Burnt Sienna

has been scrubbed in to suggest trees and shrubs.

Most of my work is started like this.

However, it may finish quite differently.

I do like variety.
