Close up of painting of apple blossom

Apple Blossom II

Apple Blossom II is the second in the series, inspired by the apple tree blossom at Old School House Art contrasted against the glorious blue spring sky. The calming colours are cool and harmonious layers of blues, purples, pinks and whites. It was bought for a lilac bedroom wall. Possibly my best yet!

Apple Blossom I

The Apple Blossom series have been many years inside my head; inspired by a particular view of the apple tree blossom at Old School House Art contrasted against the glorious blue spring sky. A really successful change of scale for me. The colours are cool and harmonious layers of blues, purples and whites, with a shock of yellow

Bluebells II

This painting was inspired by the early spring garden at Old School House Art; that first peek of colour indicating spring is around the corner. The colour palette is a sizzling juxtaposition of cool blues and purples and warm oranges and pinks.

Bluebells I

This painting incorporates a loose drawing style I often come back to and the colour palette is literally a rainbow of colour!

The photograph of this painting was taken in the garden, spot the confused bee!

This painting means so much to me. A truly wonderful weekend workshop away from the family chaos immersing myself in all things acrylic mixed media at The Old School in Whittlesford (I know, the name, it was synchronicity!) with Valerie Pettifer. This one hangs proudly in the entrance of our Old School House.
