Colour My World!


Are you looking for inspiration for your next masterpiece? I recently stumbled across a photo from B.young and found the colours in the textiles gave me the inspiration I needed during the cold winter months.

As an artist you are forever seeking new ideas by experimenting with mediums, colours, techniques and absorbing all that we feel and see. What does inspire you to paint, how do you find your inspiration? If you can answer this question then start to look beyond this and explore new ideas, jump out of your comfort zone and you will soon find a new idea for your next masterpiece. 

Have you ever tried turning your canvas on the side, or upside down? I will let you in on a secret... did you know I paint with my canvas upside down? I no longer know how to paint with the picture the right way up.
