The Path through the Wood

I finished this painting before we ran the Festival, actually. But the monitor on my desktop computer packed in, which meant I couldn’t use the photo programme, WHICH MEANT . . . . that I although I could photograph the painting I couldn’t download the photo off my camera. Technology . . . . sigh! But now I’m up and running with a new monitor – so here is the new painting.

Called ‘The Path through the Wood’, it is a painting of Hillhouse Wood at West Bergholt – the Essex Wood of my 2016 painting project. It will be going to the Haylett’s gallery in July for the summer exhibition.

I’ve also been able to access a few more photos of the Festival. Here they are.

Meanwhile, back in my studio, I’ve finished another bluebell wood painting, which I will get photographed for tomorrow. And if it’s fine tomorrow I may get to Stratford St Mary for the next visit in my Four Seasons on the Stour project. I hoped to go at the end of May. But the end of May got a bit busy . . . .

Hope June has got off to a good start for you! 🙂
