The Fens

Big skies

Sunset over the fields

Sunny but cold 

A freezing cold, wild weekend in the Fens! 
Big skies, peaceful, remote and magnificent. I managed to get the blue skies but it was freezing! Multiple photos later, and a few quickly drawn sketches I am now back in the studio. The plan is to pick 4-5 images and experiment with both acrylic and oil,using different styles of brush and palette work to try and capture the atmosphere. I have started work on 15 MDF sheets 30x50cm to develop and experiment with the style before heading to the canvas(s) !!! A bit of research on landscape artists through the ages is required, get those neurones activated and probably steal shamelessly some of their great ideas! More on its way….
