My Helford River- new collection

This is a brand new collection of paintings, started in January 2026, working from the original gouache paintings in my sketchbook. I wanted to scale up but also retain the spirit of the first paintings, so not to lose the freshness and looseness of the plein air. Working in acrylics and focusing on colour layering and mark making to capture the mood, and a sense of place and time. Painted on 360gm Clairefontaine Special paper bonded to primed boards and finished with cold wax. All framed in a white wood slab frame. Paintings are 35 x 47 cm with overall framed size is 50.5 x 62.5cm.
