Sunny days painting at home

Greetings Girls,

Thank you for sending me your beautiful paintings and for your emails. Good to hear you are all enjoying seeing a selection of your paintings from home. 

Hello from me to you from a day trip up to Ullapool, we were fortunate with the weather that day.  One of my favourite locations and a few years ago I painted this beautiful location during the late autumn. This is by Loch Glascarnoch. A happy memory!













Pictures of Rainbows have been appearing in the windows of homes across the country as people try to stay positive during the lock down. Children and adults have been busy painting rainbows as a symbol of hope. Carole's lovely rainbow can be seen from her home and is indeed an uplifting and pretty painting to those who pass by.



Alison MacDonald's pretty rainbow painting with a sheep. Her grandchildren are going to love this painting that I believe she had them in her mind when she painted her fun scene. I love the line of sheep in the distance.  



Alison Murray's beautiful painting is titled 'Hope'. And portrays a time in the not too distant future when family members can be together again, dancing as the sun sets.



A tranquil scene, Susan's Spring garden looks out to the peaceful rural countryside. 


Watercolour, Narcisi by Sandra from her garden.  Light flows in from the window setting off this lovely joyful painting. Acrylic highlights have been added to the watercolours.


Shoes waiting to be worn out again. Pastel by Avril. Very nice work.



Sheep in a meadow. A lovely scene for the Spring. By Carole.


Kitchen window in Tolox Spain, from a photo. Texture on the white wall was created using rough, gritty watercolour medium.  The colours work so beautifully together! By Sandra.


Geraldine's fine work of Monet's trees. Nice use of colour.


Longmorn loch with the wee boathouse is set in this beautiful scene. Beautifully painted by Susan.


Alison Murray's lovely painting of Monet's trees. You get such a good sense of distance when gazing on this sun filled scene.


This was an early stage of Margaret's flower painting that she was getting ready for the student art exhibition last year at the library.  The greens and pinky red work so perfectly together.
