Back on the bike and into the morning sunshine. This is a cottage on Plex Moss Lane. Further down the lane I stopped on a grass verge and did these farm buildings across the fields,
They had an incongruousness about them – a ramshackle collection of buildings.
A few days later I ventured down another, parallel, lane that crosses the moss and here are (above) some of the same buildings I painted in the previous image: the two buildings on the right of the painting of the farm across the fields.
And finally I love this cluster of buildings, half in and half out of the shadows with posts and cables sprinkled about – although the barn on the right looks like it could be subsiding.
There might be some things worth working up into a proper painting. It’s certainly good to get out again into the morning sun and the cycle ride gives me some exercise.

Good afternoon. Very scenic and rich. The farming field and cottage remind me of the padi field padang I use to passby everyday. I miss home.

Sorry to generate sadness Miishuangmu. It’s funny how places thousands of miles apart can look similar.

Nice paintings of the countryside, and excellent lighting. I really like how you created the effect of leaves using the drybrush technique.

Thanks Shawn. Also a bit of scratching out with a scalpel on its side as well, in both wet and dry paint. Anything to vary the textures.

Once again, a lovely set of sketches. I feel as if I can see it, with the renderings here.

Thanks, its always good to sit in the sun and paint what you see around you. I think it is a form of meditation.
