Spring has Sprung!

Hi Everybody

It has been a funny week here in Kent with cold and, unusually for this time on year ,frosty mornings, but then the sky is blue and the sun warms things up and there is no doubt that spring is here!

Now that we have had our second vaccine  and our lockdown restrictions are easing the light at the end of the tunnel seems a lot brighter and bigger than it has for past year.

So we are back to golf and this scene from my local golf course inspired this watercolour of our part of Kent.

Across the fields at Mereworth in Kent Watercolour 40 by 26 cms For sale on Artfinder.

Here are a few other Kent Spring watercolours which I hope you will also enjoy

Have a safe and happy Spring!

About brianswatercolours

After spending 40 years in Aerospace I now enjoy painting watercolours of our travels around the world. I also paint for others who would like reminders of there favourite places. Most of my paintings are painted from photos that I have taken, or taken by others. This blog shows some paintings from Yvonne's and my travels together. Have look at my other Blog www.aquarellesdefrance.wordpress.com

  1. Lovely images of Kent. We live in Kent but with the lifting of some restrictions we are now enjoying the colours of the Cornish coast for a while, its so nice to finally have a change of scenery

    • Thanks for the comment
      Enjoy Cornwall, I am enjoying your posts
      I recently did a post on Cornwall but as in lockdown it was from home!

      • Many thanks Brian, glad you are enjoying them. Its just so good to be posting about current travels again and not just memories, although the travel memories are great to look back on. Unlike you we can only capture magnificent places with photos, its a wonderful thing to be able to reproduce those sights on canvas, not a talent we have.😊

  2. Loved the variety in your artwork but I especially loved Spring Reflections – to me it seems like a departure from your usual style albeit a lovely departure.
    Wish we were “departing” somewhere other than our restricted environment here. One day…

    • Hi Kathryn
      Thanks for your nice comment
      Every now and again I feel like trying something different and these vertical wet into wet sort of watercolours are often the result.
      Maybe I will do a post of a collection of them soon as a group. They are fun to do.
      It now looks like our Canadian Rockies trip is not going to happen this year which is a shame but maybe we will manage it next year! At least we can now meet 6 people outdoors and we have had both our vaccines. Yippee!
      Best regards
      Brian

  3. Lovely paintings of Kent in spring. I especially like the Oasts in Spring with the stone bridge!
