Another one of the Estuary! My favourite time of the day is early morning, especially in this area...lovely mellow light, soft cloud... so peaceful. The grasses change colour from day to day depending on the sky...the value changes in the grass are quite subtle. I am still working on colour values, easy in black and white but not so in colour!

Persimmons are in season again... I love the delicate flavour of this fruit and the lovely colour. I toned this board orange so I could leave small bits peeking through. This one nearly got thrown in the bin! I find the colour orange quite difficult, but I stuck it out and was reasonably happy with it in the end. I used a limited palette of cad red, cad yellow light, ultra blue and white.

Another one from my wanderings around the Estuary.  One of my  favourite parts of  this area are the reeds... I love the way they have so many colours in them  and are always sitting there ready for me to paint... makes life easy!
