It’s been a difficult (understatement) few weeks

It’s been a difficult (understatement) few weeks for Australia 🇦🇺 ⁣
⁣
Today I was tired. 😴⁣
⁣
My social media feeds are full of disturbing images, but also full of the most incredible giving and sharing and help. 💛 It’s all very overwhelming. ⁣
⁣
Maybe I just needed a day of nothingness and hanging with my beautiful daughters. 👩‍👧‍👧 ⁣
My eldest, Bel, heads back to Europe next week and my heart is starting to feel torn in two. 💔⁣
⁣
So it’s red 🍷 tonight and a bunch of Native florals with ‘The Girl in the Dress’ to lighten the load. ⁣

I’ve been having a devilishly good time in my studio over the last few days...playing with watercolor pencils and gouache paint. ⁣
⁣
So much fun. 🤗⁣
⁣
What I learnt...⁣
⁣
🌟 Leave time to experiment with new materials. ⁣
🌟 Even when you have no idea what you are doing, keep pushing through the doubt until you feel more comfortable. ⁣
🌟 Stay multi skilled. Even though oils are my passion, I totally love spending time with other materials and had forgotten how enjoyable watercolor can be and had not really used watercolor pencils before. Pure joy. ⁣
🌟 Break the rules or make up your own if you don’t know what the rules are! I bought pastel paper...and didn’t even use pastels on it! 💁🏻‍♀️⁣
🌟 Paint whatever you want...a Tasmanian Devil was what I wanted this week! ⁣
⁣
She needs a title! 1.2.3...Go! ⁣

After an amazing two days of bidding on my ‘Aloha Koala’, with a heated bidding frenzy in the last few hours, I am thrilled to say it went from an opening bid of $80 to $1250 and is flying off to live in London! ⁣
⁣
🐨🐨🐨 100% of this money will go to @wireswildliferescue in NSW.⁣
⁣
💛 I want to thank everyone for their bids and for the shares on my post. I’ve been blown away and feel quite emotional how everyone around the world is rallying to help with the recovery of our beautiful, fire ravaged country and it’s amazing wildlife. ⁣
⁣
Thank you on behalf of our country. Thank you @wireswildliferescue for the hard work ahead of you. ⁣

🎨 First painting is on the easel (and nearly finished) for 2020! 🎨⁣
⁣
Though, I have to admit, I started this a while back and abandoned it for some still life for the exhibition. ⁣
⁣
What a great feeling to be back in my studio after a hectic Christmas season. ⁣
⁣
This years goals? ⁣
⁣
Same as last years...better my craft. Stay motivated. Paint what I love. Be open to new ideas and experiment. ⁣
⁣
Basically...just to have fun. ⁣
⁣
I reckon I’ll put another session into this painting and it will be done. It’s available and will be dry and ready to go in a couple of weeks time. ⁣

I try not to look back too often, but at this time of the year, every year, I do.⁣
⁣
Oh my Goodness. It’s no wonder I have spent the last few weeks feeling utterly spent and unable to lift a paintbrush. ⁣
⁣
I finished Roughly 66 paintings this year, of various sizes and prices. ⁣

That’s 19 paintings more than 2018. 😳🤪⁣

PM for details.⁣. A few moons ago, this was a 76x100cm size. Ive had it Re-stretched in a square format though as the composition was frustrating me every time I looked at it. 🧐. ⁣
⁣
Artist tip number 364...if something annoys you about a painting, one of the first things to reassess is composition. ⁣
⁣
Composition is KING 🤴 and can absolutely make or break even the best painting.⁣
⁣
Learn as much about composition as you can. Make it your first priority when you sketch out art ideas and play with it until it’s right. ⁣
⁣
I’ve seen beautifully rendered paintings sit unsold for years because the composition just isn’t right. Believe me, it matters. 🤓🤓
⁣
Thank you for listening. 😋⁣

Who wants more art tips to be flung your way next year? 🎨🖼👩🏻‍🎨⁣

✍🏻 Dear diary, ⁣ It’s been 46 days since

✍🏻 Dear diary, ⁣
It’s been 46 days since I last painted. (True story.)⁣
⁣
Without art, my head hurts, my heart is heavy and my family are walking on eggshells around me in fear of their lives. ⁣
😋😜😆 Well...not quite...but nearly... hmmm... Maybe?⁣
⁣
Between the exhibition, Santa’s imminent arrival and my family needing me 🥰, my studio has grown cobwebs. 🕷🕸 and my paintbrushes are twitching.🧹 ⁣
⁣
Sometimes it’s so darn hard to find the time to paint 🎨, especially as we are about to begin a BIG house renovation, involving knocking out walls and moving rooms...🛁🛁🧖🏻‍♀️⁣
⁣
BUT I’m planning to still paint. ⁣
It’s my sanity! 👩🏻‍🎨🤪⁣
⁣
How do you carve out time to be creative? ⁣
⁣
I keep a basket of drawing materials, pencils and paper under our coffee table, ready to play when I’ve reached the end of my people time pleasure. 😜⁣. Is this just me??

🌺 Pomegranates and Pilferings 🌺⁣
⁣
Two of my favourite things. 🥰⁣
⁣
I’ve painted Pomegranates numerous times now and can’t say I’ll ever get bored of painting this magical fruit. ⁣
⁣
And with gum blossom a plenty in this wide brown land of ours 🇦🇺, I’ve always got a selection of gum blossom to pilfer (😋) on my walks with the poocher. 🐶🐾⁣
⁣
This is an itty bitty for me. 30x30cm.⁣
Oil on canvas. 🖼 $450⁣
Framing is available on this one too for an extra amount. ⁣

Postage worldwide. 🌎🌎🌎 Though you better get a move on if you want to get it on Santa’s sleigh. 🛷⁣
