New painting: ‘Twilight Lull’
Time to show one of my smaller paintings again in my most abstract and spontaneous style with vivid and vibrant colours.
I love this little gem ‘Twilight Lull’ with beautiful brushstrokes of purple, pink and red in the sky particularly the red in the clouds as daylight seems to ebb bringing in the grey as the sun disappears.
This was painted with large, almost ‘decorating’ brushes for speed as the handmade paper soaks up the paint and dries as you watch.
“These small studies have a freedom in the brushstrokes and colour I use so if a larger painting hits a creative block I inspire myself with these smaller ‘free’ studies.
’They are a beginning but a very important beginning.”
