I still feel child-like excitement whenever I see a Mandarin Duck.
You can see my painting of this fella in the Environments exhibition at The Wilson in Cheltenham until 25 June.

I also finished this piece this week, another local landscape, featuring park benches, this time it’s Pittville Park.

I put the finishing touches to this landscape this week.
Some of the landscapes I am painting, like this one, feature benches. Thanks to Long Covid, I don’t do well with standing up while staying still, so a bench is always a welcome sign to me.

From snowdrops to bas relief.
I like to feel the shapes of leaves and flowers, to stroke grass heads, to feel the texture of bark. Bring sight-impaired, these tactile actions are part of my enjoyment of time in nature.
I am incorporating tactile elements in the local nature-inspired artworks I am creating. This includes bas reliefs of plants.

These are some work-in-progress shots of an acrylic painting I have been working on this week. It is based on a reference photo I took in Pittville Park last autumn on a beautifully sunny autumn day.

More dots! I really enjoyed painting this way today. It’s a meditative way of creating, and I like the dappled effect it creates. I’m sight-impaired, so the world’s all a bit of a blur to me, and this style suits me 😎
Video shows a dappled green dotted field with the trunks of several birch trees. I am painting darker dots to represent shadows cast by the trees.
