Watercolour 15 x 11ins.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I suddenly realised this morning that it&#8217;s the end of last year since I posted something on my blog, so time to remedy that straight away. The reason that I&#8217;ve been a bit quiet lately is that I&#8217;ve just had other things to do and have been away from the studio, although I&#8217;ve been doing quite a bit of teaching which I&#8217;ll tell you about in another post.<\/p>\n<p>The West Norfolk Artists Association, of which I&#8217;ve been a member for many years, is having a Spring exhibition. It&#8217;s at Thornham village hall and the theme is Coast. So, here&#8217;s a coast painting that I intend to enter for the show. It&#8217;s one of a pair that use a technique that I like very much &#8211; a monochrome painting straight on to the white paper. The monochrome uses a mixture of Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna \u00a0and a little crimson, but it could easily be done in just one pigment such as Prussian Blue or Payne&#8217;s Grey. Leaving a large area unpainted seems to be quite effective and gives a misty feel to the composition, hence the title, Misty Day at Thornham.<\/p>\n<p>The WNAA exhibition opens on Wednesday 30th March and runs until Sunday 3rd April. Open 10am &#8211; 4pm every day. Thornham village hall is on the A149 main coast road at Thornham, Norfolk, PE36 6LX.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I suddenly realised this morning that it&#8217;s the end of last year since I posted something on my blog, so time to remedy that straight away.
