Green Sky? Too much? Colour ‘appeared’ when mixing today and I thought, why not? Left the suggestion of gable ends too.

Some Tuesday Texture. Likely to be texture on Wed, Thur and Friday too! Part of a painting I’m working on today.

Keeping it quiet and simple today, feels like that kind of day. I do like a boat shape. Not sure if I should give her a name or leave her anonymous.

Some nice texture building up on this one. Like to have flat areas next to textured ones, can be a challenge to know what to let go and what to keep. Regrets….I’ve had a few 😊

Part of a trio I’ve been working on this week. Have taken it outside to contemplate next move while taking a break. Such a beautiful July day in Aberdeen, so nice to be sitting outside.

Crops from three paintings I’ve been working on this weekend. Have enjoyed colour creeping in after recent work becoming almost monochrome. Just going with it. Wonder what this week will bring? Colour or no colour, that is the question.
