Went down for a two day course with Naomi Frear at the St Ives School of Painting. Its a great venue and Naomi's course was focused, professional and totally inspirational - big thanks go to her.
I stayed the rest of the week on my own. Some people find that strange, maybe it is, but I love the sea and spent most evenings on the beach watching the sunset . Personally I value time on my own and find it invaluable for clearing out my head.
Since leaving the Royal Academy last year I've been unsettled with my painting style. I now have more time to paint and play and wanted to be looser and freer in my work but instead found myself buying smaller brushes and getting tighter. This course opened the door I've been tapping at, and its great to feel my love of painting flood back.
Each morning I'm up and out and off to the studio, working on new work in a new way - putting paint on, rubbing it off, putting it on, scraping it back.....
Happy Painting
