We’re currently travelling and staying in Scarborough, a place I find inspiring and rejuvenating. It’s close to Cape Point in South Africa, “the fairest cape we saw in the whole circumference of the earth” according to Sir Francis Drake.

I did a ‘live’ (i.e. mostly unedited) painting demo today using Coloricombo Week 8’s colours.

In the demo I’m painting small succulent plant forms in limited colours using QoR watercolours and a pointed round brush (Silver Silk 88 No.10). The plant forms you see in the outcome will be used to create a repeat pattern.
