Original Cut Flower pieces for Herefordshire Art Week
I thought I’d keep a record of the work that I put together for Herefordshire Art Week 2023 that was exhibited at Aardvark Books in Brampton Bryan. This is a series of my ‘cut flower’ pieces - with the species being individually painted by hand (drawn in ink and then coloured with watercolour) and then cut out, ever so slowly and carefully, using a scalpel. -
Malvern Autumn Show
On Friday 23rd, Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th September 2022, I'll be at the Malvern Autumn Show.
While I am there I will be starting and working on a painting of some locally grown flowers.
It will be an A3 piece, on watercolour paper, drawn in pen and ink and coloured with watercolour.
I am doing this so people can see how I produce my work - and because I love seeing other artists at work when I'm visiting places!
I have decided to create this piece as a raffle prize, and so for the price of £1 you can be in with a chance of winning the painting.

The Greenhouse drawings
I took a chair, a cushion, my watercolour paper, paints and some coloured pencils and along with my vase of flowers and an audio book I spent some blissful time sketching away in what felt like a little bubble.
