Still summer

I have been painting outside a lot this summer. I am not sure if people like it or if they do how it compares with earlier landscapes as its a different application of paint. I have dabbled with this approach before but with a few tweaks I have managed to make it work better for me. I am liking the results as there is more colour than ever before in the work. At times I can see flashes of Constable in the work and I greatly admire his oil sketches. I do hope people will like it but have to follow my heart and pursue this road just nervous about doing large work hoping to build up to that... argh scared. Feel free to leave any coments x

still summer

So out on hills and into the countryside with me heavy rucksack and laundry bag covering me box carrying all my small paintings, oh yes what a life very hard work but really rewarding when it goes well. Here are some recent pieces.
