@branacos84555 @Tree_Folklore I use mostly water so perhaps that’s the problem 👍

[Kim Appleton Art @Getthepicture4]

@branacos84555 @Tree_Folklore Thank you for the recipe!

@branacos84555 @Tree_Folklore Hello, does your hawthorn ink solidify into a jelly? I’ve made it twice now, first time I though it must be a mould or something so I was super clean second time and it’s done it again 😫

At the time Henry Moore made 'Family Group,' (1948) he also produced a series of drawings and sculptures depicting his wife Irina and daughter Mary on a rocking chair. He later integrated the male figure into the group, celebrating the completeness of family life.

When it comes to painting- is accuracy the key or artistry? I really waver between the two and I’m very curious what both artists and art enthusiasts think!

[Kim Appleton Art @Getthepicture4]

Finished this one... It's quite big for me 800 x 600 on a deep canvas. I've called it Water-logged, Chanonry Point
Oil on Canvas.
Soon to be joined by some others to make a series from my visit to Fortrose earlier in the year.

Super excited to share that I have a stall at the Sir Jackie Stewart Classic event on the 18th and 19th June. It should be a great day out with loads to do.

Just framed up this (very) old watercolour of Inverlochy Bridge. Used a linen slip to keep the glass away from the surface and a lovely honey coloured wood frame. Keeping it contemporary but the linen slip gives a more traditional edge.

Gearr Aonach, the middle one of the three sisters at Glen Coe. I didn't realise that the three sisters are parts of one big mountain called Bidean nam Bian.

Two small landscapes are now on my #Etsyshop ready for framing with a gorgeous off-white mount.
Perfect gift for someone who loves the outdoors.

Interesting job! Large decoupage picture, clients wanted 2nd mount inserted 1/2 way up the deep frame. I cut the spacer lengthwise, sanded & repainted the edges & fitted 2nd mount in the middle

Just framed this Alphabetography print for a customer in a simple black frame, works really well with the black and white images!
This frame also comes in white, dark grey and light grey.

Went for a twiddly frame and I'm really pleased with how it came out! Like the contrast between old style frame with the modern painting. 👍👍
This painting will be going on Etsy soon.
