I thought I'd start an A-Z of landscape painting as a way of talking more about what it means to me and how I approach it. This will by no means be a comprehensive A-Z, but more of a window into my art practice. Landscape and nature makes up about 95% of my studio and on location work. It is a subject with which I have a great affinity, and this three part blog will be my personal take on an A-Z.

In my own paintings I create a lot of texture and layering of colour and lines, so let's go on a little tour of my favourite crops and close-ups, and how I created the effects. Taking a closer look at them we can see how my favourite techniques can create a little magic. There are always interesting areas of a painting that deserve a closer look!

A post about being brave and free in painting, and about moving away from self imposed limitations and expectations.
