My studio has 4 new, but nowhere near finished, oil paintings waiting to dry.

Because I paint in oil and because I paint in layers, sometimes painting is a waiting game. On the go at the moment is a wonderful commission which I am really enjoying, two matching paintings which are tall and thin and could end up as a pair and another tree.... that is waiting to be filled with with something. Will it be books or another Cambridge painting? Not sure yet but I am open to ideas.

One of my problems is that I am full of ideas - but I don't write them down. I know... I also change track a lot so a painting may start with a definite focus and end up as something else.

I think this is because I never make a detailed drawing before I start unless it is a commission.

Cambridge Drawing Society exhibition coming up soon and then Cambridge Open Studios so plenty to work towards.
