This is my first blog on my new website! I’m so excited that this is almost fully functional now as it’s been a long time coming. As an artist, I’m actually fairly tech savvy but have had to credit the website build mainly to my youngest daughter who is a Graphic Designer.
I’d love to know what you think of the new website so please use the contact page to let me know. Something I’m really passionate about is creating art for those that appreciate it and who might need a little boost in their lives with a new creative painting either in watercolours or my newly acquired skill – oil painting. The latter I’m still very much exploring and learning – my favourite way to do this is through creating new oil paintings, trying out different colour combinations and seeing what works best. I hope that each painting is an improvement on a previous one, and absolutely love watching a painting ’emerge’ as I apply the paint – it’s such an exciting creation to be part of.
I’d like to use this blog as a way of talking about the work I’m doing and also share some of my learnings with other artists, especially those who are new to art. I’m hoping this is a good way of helping people navigate their way into gaining artistic skills more quickly. I’d love to know what topics you would like to know more about? Whether that’s colour combination, techniques of applying paint in watercolour, or how to create the overall compositions, or something completely different. Please let me know using the contact page and I’ll try and accommodate suggestions for futures blogs. I think that’s it from me today – thank you for taking the time to read this 🙂
