The Daily Dance Cloudscape in soft pastels 40x30cm The inevitable meeting and attraction of opposite energies converges as the end of the daylight dance begins. Huge purple eyelids take bigger blinks and the sun starts its descent. Colours become more vibrant whilst the curtain call is taken - it’s the highlight of the day and […]
Feathery Flutters Cloudscape in soft pastels 40x30cm A huge expanse of open skies reaches as far as the eye can see. Feathery flutters of wispy clouds stretch and yawn, unable to realise that they can take up as much space as they like today. The odd frond strays but in the main they stay together, […]
'Cloud Caravans' Cloudscape in soft pastels 40x30cm Great hunks of sky motor across the vast expanse above the sullenly grumbling sea. Their insides barely contained as these cloud caravans waddle in time with the gale-force rhythms. Shop here: https://www.lynneforrester.com/
'Envied Escape' Cloudscape painting in soft pastels 40x30cm Clouds cluster as close to the mountain tops as they can, jostling and whirring to create large bouffants of whipped textures. Some stray parts break free and soar in all the kerfuffle - barely noticed by many but the escape is dreamt of and envied by some. […]
'Bubbling Beauties' Cloudscape in soft pastels The first of my 30 Paintings in 30 Days challenges for 2019 is this month - here's my painting for today: Doughy mounds billow and merge as they’re kneaded into fully-fledged bubbling beauties.

'Charades' #27 Highland Heathers Collection Oil on Canvas Board Clouds move swiftly over the sun and a dappled glow highlights the fluttering petals.

Senses are subject to charades as everything conspires to fluctuate and challenge […]
'Reflourishing' #28 Highland Heathers Collection Oil on Canvas Board Deep pinks swirl and show a hint of their true colours, closely guarded by experienced ones who protect the new growth.

Highland Heathers Collection That's the whole of the '30 Paintings in 30 Days' completed! It's been quite testing but as always, I get so much from the whole experience. Just spending so much time painting is unbelievably fabulous and is weirdly cathartic for the old braincells. I'll give the blog (and my paintbrushes!) a rest […]
'Rosebud Tips' Oil on Box Canvas 12"x12" (30x30cm) Dusky pink rosebud-like tips peek from the greying ashes of the falling sun.
