While teaching art and yoga during the week, I have been working early morning and late nights on re-opening my online shop. I'm so thrilled to have things available for my collectors again. Original artworks are in the process of being scanned and photographed, so patience is appreciated!

We visited Belvoir Castle this past weekend. It quickly became a family favorite. The home is so lovely and who doesn't love visiting a film set? (Portions of The Crown was filmed here!) We always end up with an arm load of future presents for the girls, goodies for a delicious meal, and one-of-a-kind loose leaf tea from the Engine Yard. As we drove into the car park, there is a rolling view of the fields below the castle that are magnificent. In an artist daze, I wandered towards the view, snapping photos.  The first ultramarine layer applied to create the basic shadows and skeleton of the painting.
Much like a screen print process, I have experimented using Ultramarine, Lemon Yellow, and Cadmium Red. I layer in that order on the paper. The secondary and tertiary colors created were very fun to uncover. I focus on the tints and shades of my focus, leaving white space as the main highlights. Overall, I think I prefer the monotone blue best, but the end result is also beautiful.
