Painting spring

Watch a Painting come to Life

Have you ever wondered how a painting comes to life? 

I get asked this all the time with questions like...

• Where do you start?
• How do you get your inspiration?
• How do you know when it's finished?​

Last Spring I was having an exhibition in an old barn in the heart of Wiltshire. It was beautiful, in the courtyard there was an ancient Walnut tree. As the sun began to warm the air we watched the leaves unfurl a beautiful olive, bronze colour. Swallows swooped through branches and darted into nooks in the walls of the barn. Bluebells filled the air with their rich scent and blossom fluttered around us. It was heavenly. When I returned to my studio I painted this piece, you can watch the video here...
