New Forest paintings
Here are some of the paintings I was doing during summer 2021 - mixed media elements with the coloured pencil. Working on acrylic painted grounds - Struggling with the immensity of detail visible in these subjects, even though I try to crop all the way in when I'm doing the initial sketches I feel that these are still overwhelmed and unfocussed - nevertheless I like 'em plenty. Horse from my own photo, done after the fact - for animals the coloured ground is a lot of fun -
