Studio tour, plus a painting demonstration. From sketch, to dodgy middle, to an OK ending.

I start with a walk around the studio where I show recent works that are my "day job".
Then I select a waterfall photograph to paint.

Perfect timing for me, been struggling with my own waterfall in acrylics, been cold and very dry here, my paints dry to fast. Watching you work has helped me, Thank you very much for your videos...

[@shirleypeters]

Funny! I'm complaining about the paint drying so fast because of the heat. But the change is coming - you'll have spring soon.

[@Edgecumbeart]

You're hair looks pretty and nice tutorial Shirley! Didn't know Bob had a stroke. Is alright? Sending love and prayers.

[@shirleypeters]

Thank you Patricia. Bob had a stroke 10 years ago. He lost the left side of his body, but luckily can still walk, and drive a car with one hand. Brain and speech OK too, so he was "lucky" in some ways. Hair is a changing thing!! :-)

[@dihan7574]

Hi from Perth wa Love your watercolours and I love that big oil painting you showed us of the waterfall. Do you ever do an oil painting demo on utube

[@shirleypeters]

Thank you Di. No I haven't dome that yet. It's on the list. I'll be painting in oils "plain air" this week, so I'll see how I go recording one of these days.
