While the weather was dark and grey at the beginning of this year I was preparing to be bold with colour...
My current artwork in progress has some some pretty wild colour blends. It has been a refreshing change of palette as I have largely been working with soft blues and neutral sand tones for the last couple of years.
However, despite the brightness, there is still a lot of subtlety going on here. I've begrudgingly come to accept that complicated, subtle tonal blending is "my thing."
I'm now moving into turquoise-blue tones and on the home stretch. I had hoped to have had this finished in time for the gallery reopening at the beginning of April (our tourist season runs from April- September) but there was so much admin/prep needing my time and attention that I barely got near artwork for most of March. I have to keep reminding myself that I can't do everything.
Stay tuned for the big reveal, hopefully not too far away!
