Winter is a tricky time to paint outdoors. I will set up en-pleinair (my outdoor painting kit), try to work as quickly as possible so to capture the drama of the winter light only to get washed out by rain or snow – and then there’s the wind. Here are ruby-red rosehips with grey and yellow hues of the winter beach. | “Red in Grey” | diptych | each 8×8″ together 16×8″ | Jan 2020 |
Very nice paintings Susy. So fun to see you develop as a watercolour painter. Painting outdoors is always tricky but especially so in winter (which I have never tried to be honest). You are getting the atmospherics just right in these two works. Also, good to hear about you new studio and gallery.
