This is at a Village called Brasted in Kent. Harry is painting a church, also standing by a Litch Gate. Me painting my subject which you can see in front of me, and the painting itself. I did another painting but didn`t complete it but will do shortly, I hope.
Lovely piece Vic and it looks like a lovely place to paint too. I like how you achieve a nice warm sky as it reaches the horizon. I love to see old churches that have gates but I didn't know they were called Litch Gates. All the best my friend, Michael.
Hi Michael. Glad you like it mate. It is a lovely Area to paint. I found at least three subjects I wanted to paint, but I only had one board, so I split it in half ( A line through the centre ) and did the one I have posted and started another for which I will complete later. The car park we were standing in became full up due to a Funeral, so we packed up. Thanks for your comment Michael. I will now check your blog out mate. All the best Michael Vic.
I started painting around 1990 and loved it straight away.
I started with watercolour,and then after about 15 years I moved to Oils and acrylics. I still paint the odd watercolour to keep my hand in so to speak. I love impressionism. The only time I use detail is when I paint portraits. Otherwise it is my interpretation of the subject.
I am retired but still find it hard to find time to paint. I reckon I can manage to do a painting about three times a week.
Originally I was a Motor Mechanic. Then, for the eighteen years leading up to my retirement, I worked
for Barclays bank.
