A little Deliberate Practice

A work in progress image of one of the portraits featured in the 'Our Painted Lives' blog post.

Hiya!,.. Time for an update!.. These two both come from my 'The Deliberate Practice of Art' blog.

The first is an old one I haven't posted here yet, practicing portraits in oil, under varying lighting conditions! :

Our Painted Lives

The second is brand spanking new, showing my process in detail, of one of my tiny experimental paintings. 
I share some of my latest discoveries in technique and combining various media!! :

​Ta for now then folks! :)

Posted 'On the Easel.. ' June 2023: 

Update: Hi guys, It's been a while since posting the update above.. Since then much has happened. I had a wake up call near the the end of last year, to pay attention to health issues that had been worsening through the course of many years.. Though better now since learning about and addressing the cause, it is an issue that is chronic and more time consuming than I would like, to address..
A parent health issue that has required and that will require much more care time on my part for years to come, has arisen too.. 

Due to me addressing my own health issues though, I feel much more able and energetic to tackle all this, and still continue to progress with my art practice.. It is part of what has sustained me and is what continues to drive me daily after all.. 

​Thank you so much again to all who have continually supported me even during these down times. Though my focus has been much on improving my health these past few months, I feel ready now to shine my focus back on my creative life again!..  :)
