First stage of my oil painting of the Idol! The large rock at Brimham Rocks which has been painted many times before by other artists such as Graham Sutherland in the 50’s. I have been to Brimham Rocks many times before and not noticed this rock until l researched other artists painting it. That made me search for it and want to paint it myself.
I am Really enjoying painting this rock. It’s so beautiful and I love the shadows it’s creating. Celebrating everything beautiful about the Yorkshire weather and it’s landscapes.
This is hopefully for Weetons Food Hall Window. I am so lucky to be exhibiting there in June and July 2021.

That’s it for tonight now I am getting tired and I will look at it tomorrow.
I’ve always wanted to be an artist for some reason. What ever that means. Perhaps it means being paid to create art or creating art for yourself? I think it would make me happier to paint every day, to loose myself in the process of painting, drawing, making ! Only of course when I am enjoying it and it’s going well! 😇 I like beautiful things around me. I like colour, pattern and texture. I like history, I like to know what has happened in people’s lives, how they have coped with life and what they have done.
