Spring Finally Blooms after a Dark, Cold Winter

After one of the coldest winters for a really long time, and some much needed family time, I decided to get some colour back into my life and made some acrylic painting sketches of a vase of red flowers. 

Image showing a vase of red flowers with green leaves next to tubs of paint tubes and an open sketckbook. The sketchbook page has a brightly coloured abstract painting sketch of the flowers.

I'm not sure what will finally come of these, but the process so far is amazing and I'm pretty sure these will be in my 'inspiration bank' for the future.

Here are some more studies from my sketchbook:

    It’s good to look back at your work for the day and to smile! These pastel works are inspired by walks through the grounds of Holkham Hall in Norfolk.
