    My inspiration on holiday at Spekes mill sea meadow, Hartland, North Devon

    I am on holiday on the Heritage coastline of North Devon in late May 2025. I am in a beautiful sea meadow full of wonderful nature. The colours are inspiring and the view as I looked across across to the sea through the meadow inspire me for my new watercolour collection.

    Plein air watercolour paintings on the borders in late Spring

    I have had a wonderful time today on the borders of North Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. I went sketching with my ladies sketching group and we walked from Bourton village to the top of the ridge to see the views, beautiful trees and delightful meadows. The sky was moody which illuminated the colours of nature even more. We all decided we will do more field studies in this amazing historical area not far from where I live.

    It was Easter Monday and I came across this wonderful scene on a walk at Blandford nature reserve. A local area not far from where I live. The light was perfect and might even go back there to paint it very soon !

    Painting a sunset heath scene in the Art Garden Studio, Shaftesbury, Dorset

    I am making the most of the sunlight in the studio today and my inspiration was Stoborough heath in Dorset. I used bockingford watercolour paper and a three colour technique. Wet on wet washes were applied and then a build up of colours for the bracken, gorse and grasses.
