Feet Posed
I didn’t have much time for painting today because I had visitors, and they left behind a four-legged lodger who simply must get bosies. I did have time for a quick study of some feet. Have a blessed Samhain. Til the morn, Suzanne 622/700

Art All Day Yay
I had a full-on art day today, just hours and hours of pottering and creating. I started out with a figure sketch in my A3 hands and feet sketchbook. I got the basics down, and then I had a Zoom session doing short, timed studies of landscapes with Orla Stevens. I am not much practised…

Fingers and Toes Again
I have run out of pyrrole red, but there’s more en-route 😉 I did have enough for this painting in my A3 sketchbook. I did a few other bits and pieces today, but this is my favourite. I’ve painted a version of this pose previously in a more muted palette. Til the morn, Suzanne 618/700

Changed My Mind
I decided not to obliterate the orange (yet) and just kept layering. I added in a bit of mixing with the red and the turquoise, which goes against the original plan, but I like it more. Lots to do, but happier with it than I was yesterday. Til the morn, Suzanne 598/600

Studio Things and Not Orange
This is on a canvas board, and so far I am mostly happy with it, but I am changing the orange tomorrow, because it’s making me itch. Other things that happened today include opening a box from Jackson’s, yay. There was also the culmination-ish of a palette experiment, a new A4 sketchbook started, and a…

Repeat Until Satisfied
I’m still obsessed with this hand and foot pose, and I’m really enjoying the process. Somewhere in between yesterday’s painting (r) and today’s is where I want to end up. I do like the black I mixed today, I’m going to play with that more tomorrow. Til the morn, Suzanne 587/600

Skint Knee
Today I pulled out an old tube of Crimson red acrylic that has been in my stash for years, mostly because the lid was absolutely stuck. I have tried a few times to get it open and failed, but today I persevered and eventually managed to get it to budge. I don’t know what was…

Foot Thing
I spent some time today rearranging a few of my shelves, moving things that I use into more accessible spaces, and less useful things out of the way. I found a few things I had forgotten about, and I should probably do a shelf emptying task once a month just to reacquaint myself with things.…

Thoughts on Critic, Creativity plus Banksy
I spent a lot of time today journaling, and looking through my sketchbooks, and thinking about my creative process, and then I had a real struggle getting to painting. I listened to what was going on internally, and it was all very negative about how I had wasted my time, and failed to be creative…

Purple Toes
I had a fun day in the studio today. I spent around an hour working in my mark making sketchbook while on a Zoom meeting with some other artists. I filled three sketchbook spreads with a variety of marks and I have some interesting ideas for taking things a bit further. I was colour-mixing after…

Incredible ;)
I was doing some colour mixing with a red that I don’t often use, and the results were, shall we say, interesting. I remain unconvinced, and the tube of red paint may remain rarely used. I may have a different view in the morning. I do my best not to waste paint, so I used…

Four Canvases
Today I have been rotating this batch of canvases, which is a process I am really enjoying. I have been trying out different mixes for the skin tones, and correcting some of the shapes as I go. These will be evolving in layers because there are definitely some changes and choices to be made, but…
