New Work.

 I am working on some small canvases and so far I have kept images of bright sunny days firmly in my mind. November fog and drizzle are not intruding yet and temperatures remain relatively high. On a couple of occasions I have been able to sit on the bench in the garden eating my lunch which all helps to evoke some thoughts of summer.

Back at work.

Fresh supplies of paints ordered and delivered and a stock of canvases already waiting in the studio, nothing to stand in the way of getting back to work. Even the sun is shining and that's always an inspiration. It's a great feeling to get back into a routine and, as always after a gap in work, the first completed painting will be a significant and important milestone.
