Sunday, 16th February 2025 - Catkins for Divine Inspiration

After many mugs of tea I braved the garden. Oh and a coffee. It was very very chilly out amongst the weeds and worms. I picked primroses and snowdrops and made a tiny posy. We took it to Si and Lesley's. Over soup, tapas and nectarine cobbler we hatched a plan to take a train trip to Spain. Nick and Alli were there and in on the plan.

I went back into my studio to repeat my oil painting lesson. I had much more success using the proper board and mineral spirit. Here it is.

I collected a bunch of catkins to paint. They are beautiful but drop their pollen in a cascade of yellow on the table. Great fun to paint.
