A Creative Life | Sketchbooks, Coastal Wandering & Studio Experiments

A little of everything that makes up my creative life this week... From spending time in the studio, working in my concertina sketchbook, to a road trip to Whitby and a little time exploring the landscape along the way. Back home, there's some experimenting with a new art material, and eventually a rather foggy morning walk through the Lincolnshire countryside. I often find that inspiration comes from the most unexpected places. A different coastline, a familiar footpath, a fleeting change in the light or simply taking the time to look a little closer. Not everything becomes a painting, and not every experiment leads somewhere, but all of it finds its way into the creative process in one way or another. So come along for a little landscape wandering, sketchbook time and studio experimentation. I hope you enjoy the video....
