Updates from Melanie Cambridge's studio

  • Latest Inspirations

    Here's a short introduction to my newer style of landscapes. Produced in the Studio from sketches and ideas whilst out walking in the countryside. This year I am trying to move on from being too "specific", working towards painting the essence of the landscapes which surround us all.

    Capturing Autumn Colours

    Here's an insight into my Studio working practice. This oil of Autumn Colours on the North Downs, near to my home was produced from sketches whilst out walking looking for inspiration in the local landscape. The first stage is to block in the main shapes and colours before adding further details later on. Oil paintings like these go through several stages as they need to dry in between layers.

    Out on location this winter painting the water meadows along the River Wey in Surrey. Lovely light and great cloud patterns in the sky.

    A winter outdoor experience!

    Painting down at West Wittering in January. Quite a challenge in the cold wind, but having found a sheltered spot, it was time to get painting!

    Painting the Artists!

    Painting the Artists!

    Love this close up of a garden scene painted last month near Alton, Hants. A fellow artist was working nearby so I just had to put her into my picture. This close-up shows the lively brushwork. I think it would look great on a much larger scale. This painting is only 12 x 10 inches.

    Painting the Lavender Fields

    Just spotted this image of me painting last year in my local lavender fields. It brings back lovely memories and reminds me to go again next year.

    Painting at Watershed Studio

    Nice to get a photo of me at work for a change! Here I am giving a demonstration to students on my summer oil course, painting the sheep as they sat in the shade of this lovely large tree.

    Studio catch up

    Studio catch up

    In my studio this week as the weather is so poor. Painting in the drizzly rain is really not for me these days! Doing some framing of finished works instead. Here I have been putting the finishing touches to the frames with a nice wax polish before paintings go off to a local gallery.

    Painting at Papercourt Sailing Club

    Painting at Papercourt Sailing Club

    A great day painting the club racers down at Papercourt Sailing Club near Ripley in Surrey. Quite a challenge as they don't hang about! However, I came home with lots of ideas, photos and studies for a series of studio paintings.

    In my Studio - painting Dell Quay

    Back in my studio this week, creating some new works following a recent "plein air" trip to Dell Quay near Chichester. I hope you enjoy this video of my latest Dell Quay painting, this time done from photos taken at the time. I still aim to keep my brushwork fresh and loose, painting quickly to re-create the atmosphere of a cool breezy afternoon on the foreshore.
