Where did the Summer go!

A few days in La Napoule near Cannes resulted in this sketch of the local Castle

Hi Everybody

Thanks for reading my Blog.

Its been a  wet and rather odd summer in Kent this year with showers, wind, heavy rain and sun too.

It has been a odd time for my painting too but nevertheless I have managed to paint quite  a few watercolours including s9me new styles and sizes.

i have also now have some watercolours in a local Gallery and in a few other locations in Kent.

I don’t think that in these difficult times that buying Art is not high on peoples priorities but maybe the winter will see sales retuning for artists once again.

So we here are some recent watercolours for you to see in case you think I have stopped painting!

I had a big desire to paint a series of very impressionistic watercolours and here are some of them

 

Bamburgh Castle at Dawn

And a few more traditional watercolours

A sketch of the Watersmeet hotel where we once stayed at in Devon at Coombesgate bay

At the Beach!

Broadstairs in Kent for a local Exhibition at “The Drawing Room” in West Malling

So there you are , a few of my Summer 2023 Watercolours which I hope you will like.

And lastly our local Art Club asked for a Black and white only artwork for a little competion

Here are two , they were such fun to do and so quick!

If you do a moment do have a look at my Artfinder site

Or if you are in Kent do visit the Gallery in West Malling called “The Drawing Room”where you will find many artworks by local  Kent artists, ideal as Presents!

Happy travelling

Brian
