\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

autumn afternoon walks mean that I often catch marvellously coloured skies<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

colours are warmer, glowier<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

burning brighter<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

inspiring new paintings<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

plants show up surprisingly against a still green backcloth<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

the dahlias are still volcanic in Paul’s garden<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

joining the golden late sunshine<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

keeping our mental toes warm<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I hope there’s not a frost tonight or it will all be over<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I have had them indoors<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and been painting them<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

against the window light. the rosehips and the turquoise ocean bowl by my friend Jan Lewin Cadogan act as counterpoint<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

although the pots in this composition also engage me<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

it’s the flowers that are centre stage. getting the acrylic paint to create the burn, the red light.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

the pink undercoat helps to make that glow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I just picked some more – another painting to do ….<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and so ….. another small canvas 12 x 12 inches (30 cm)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

now I feel a bit addicted to painting dahlias …..<\/p>\n
