Yet another awful weather week.  Did manage to get outside to paint on two occasions but our normal visit to the Priory had to be cancelled as Carisbrooke could not be accessed!  Have decided to put my oils away for the next few months because it's now really difficult to paint in the conservatory because we keep coming in with wet clothes.  I've checked things out carefully and it looks as though using gouache paint relatively thickly, the same techniques and methods for oils can be applied.  Hope so.

 

Visit to Mottistone, At least the weather held off.

Osborne last Tuesday, not all the trees were in their autumn clothes, but getting that way.

Such mixed colour in this tree.

This is probably the last oil painting I will be doing for a while.  Not totally displeased with it.  Finally a bit of progress.

Weather still looks very unsettled and due to family crisis, not sure if I'll be able to get much outdoor painting in.  Have kept up with Inktober, but some of the sketches are pretty awful!
