Life : A Work in Progress.

Snowdrops in Spring.
Work in Progress.

I am smiling as I type the above words " Work in Progress". I feel as though my life is just that. A work in progress with so many changes happening along the way and many being really wonderful. 

Over the last few months I have demonstrated so many snowdrop paintings in watercolour and to be fair I thought I was "snowdropped out ". But just when I think I never want to see another snowdrop again I   find I have a yearning to do the unexpected and paint yet another one.  Or even more.

With this magical medium you can never be bored of any given subject and in turn this effects how I live in that I am never bored of any one thing. I see every  moment as a wonderful opportunity to improve not only my painting but also enrich my life.

These snowdrops brought me peace in a busy week. How incredible that we can simply relax by painting something we love.


 Simple Snowdrop painted minus the use of a preliminary sketch,masking fluid or goauche.
