Husb and I went to a talk by the veteran artist Hanlyn Davies at our local art gallery, The Glynn Vivian, this evening. I really appreciated it and learnt a lot. I’ve been trying to break away from always working directly from life, tapping into my imagination, but I’ve been finding it hard going. Watching Hanlyn run through a slide show of over 50 years work has given me a bit of confidence to let go a bit and keep experimenting. I added a bit of red paint to the canvas board I started painting last week, when I was using up leftover Liquitex acrylic paints at the end of a teaching session. There wasn’t much left this week. It’s going to be interesting to see how this develops, I’ll keep it intuitive.
How wonderful to find the inspiration you seek from the gallery talk — great to have things like that around to spark ideas!
It’s a pretty cool place
I love e feeling and movement in this painting. There is also a sense of mystery that I like. You are on your way ❤️😉
Thanks Margaret, I have no idea where it will go next, but I guess that’s a good thing
Exactly 😉
