Studio Work September/October 2025
- 22 September 2025
Starting the home stretch for the end-of-year and final exhibition. Relatively comfortable where I am, with a few more explorations to come with 'toxic' colour for disturbance.
A dark green landscape with mud painted on when paint layer dry. Plus charcoal.
A play with a lemon yellow over a mix of watercolour and charcoal. This is the wet version.
Soaking paper in fertiliser and mud.
Testing a few papers and deciding on one for final exhibition.
Soaked in fertiliser first, mud second, and when dry, painted with watercolour.

This looks as if it might work - very slow drying day, so looking forward to seeing it dry.
This work gets a big tick for me... so it maybe hundreds of paintings, selecting a final few for the exhibition.
This works for me too.
Still wet with mud.
And dry. Still considering/analysing.
This is working for me - I need to accentuate the land more.
One more layer of watercolour to accentuate the horizon.
Ploughing on the Dalgety Bros. farm - not happy with this, the figurative part, as it is not quite right and keeps drawing me there.
Updated verion of Ploughing on the Dalgety Bros. farm. And a tick.
Playing with, trying to find a 'toxic' colour, as opposed to a sunset colour on the horizon.
