Always experimenting I generally put a stretched canvas on the floor, pour water onto it and then add paint to the wet surface. The result is very random. I will then allow this to dry and paint with a brush or other tool, a more measured activity, and sometimes this works quickly and successfully as with this painting.

Soft, Soft, Soft

Acrylic on Canvas 30 x 30 cm

This painting was inspired by living in and walking around the Yorkshire countryside where the valleys often have mist lying low within and, when the sun starts to burn off the moisture above this mist, the beautiful landscape is revealed bit by bit.
