painting with my camera

I recently put one of my paintings outdoors to experiment with how it would fare against the elements and how I would feel about it in a new and more dishevelled state. I expected it to be battered and bruised, and at the very least soaked through after a couple of days of our great British summer (!) However, the oil paint is so far really doing its job – it seems pretty indestructible!  But at least I have got something out of the test, even it wasn’t what I originally set out to achieve - some great photos! Next time, an acrylic…

Busy preparing for Hebden Bridge Open Studios which take place from 1 to 3 July. I’m having a sale of all painting and photographic work from 2010 so come on down for bargains!

I’ll also be displaying lots of new photographic work available to order and will have plenty of art cards and photo books on hand too!

These early morning shots have given me all sorts of ideas for some further development, photography-wise - watch this space!

Early morning photos in the veg garden have given me some painting inspiration…

Blissed out in the Rothko Room at Tate Modern last weekend. So impressed you’re allowed to take photos now – really wish I’d had my camera on me (I know, such bad form, my excuse – I was poorly) - had to make do with my phone. Don’t worry though, the blur is deliberate!

Daily photos – one of many Project Summer aims! Still in catch up mode following a hugely intense MA module which has just ended but I’ll be posting more regularly soon!

Today I’ve started filling out my Red Bubble shop – why not take a peek and see if you fancy buying any of my work as cards, prints, framed pictures, postcards – and etc!
