You can use this one if you don't have the right shade of lime green in your palette for the clown shoe stripes!

The shimmering river Coquet as it passes through the beautiful village of Rothbury was there 2 weeks ago at this very spot.
If anyone knows the Raul Moat story , this patch of grass is where it all came to an end .
Very sad spot , but at the same time very peaceful now

Very nice Nige!
Looking forward to your Lanzarote pics and paintings!!
Are you doing a trip report, if you have time?
All the best

Yes thanks ,, no I shall post some paintings as I go , unfortunately the usual acrylics , but better than nothing.
We are then shortly coming to Thai on November 5th for a month , and there will be oil paintings from that trip , possibly quite a few as we are looking after Mum and Dad for a month to give the SIL a much needed break ,, although they do have a fair bit of DIY for me to do
cheers
Right we are in lovely Lanzarote right now ,, but before we went I went up into Norfolk to paint on the river Bure at Horstead mill
oil on oil board ,, I will post a better pic when I get home ,, also I did another one so I will add that when I get home
most beautiful day out ,, there will be more in Norfolk later on

Little bit of Autumnal plein air painting down at Beaumont Quay about a 5 min drive from ours
Tried but failed to capture this old wreck rotting away , however this is an afternoon in England 19 degrees , full sun , light breeze that I wouldn’t swap for all the tea in China , priceless

Now for something completely different .
Yesterday Saturday was a big learning curve day for both myself and my youngest grandson Zach .
We went over to Felixstowe to pick the little fella up in the morning and brought him back to Frinton with us for the day ,, for Zach it was to learn to paint alongside his grandad and for me it was a day of learning to cope with a full on autistic ( loud ) adhd + ticks/ child of which I have to say I was totally ignorant of .
Anyway he was a very happy boy at the end of the day as his art is the one thing that calms him down as he gets totally engrossed in it during that time ,, here he is with his first oil painting of a pumpkin and a charcoal sketch , his mum and dad was both surprised and very pleased at his achievements over the day ,, btw I didn’t touch any of his work he was just painting alongside watching me , although I did mix the paint for Attachment 107600https://teakdoor.com/blob:https://te...7-01a833c8fbff
