I'm so excited that two of my paintings have been accepted for this year's Chelsea Art Society open exhibition !! The exhibition opened today and runs until Monday 17th June, at Chelsea Old Town Hall. There are so many great artists taking part, I can't wait to see their work this weekend when I visit.

Here's a series of plein air landscape paintings I made of the River Thames near Twickenham during May this year.  It was a hazy morning with the sun just breaking through slightly. I hadn't tried painting in this kind of light before but I really enjoyed the tranquil atmosphere. The water at low tide was completely motionless allowing beautiful reflections to form. Twickenham Riverside, Hazy Morning 10x8" Oil on panel Available from Chelsea Art Society open exhibition 2019  This painting was completed soon afterwards, this time I stood on the bank of the Thames near Marble Hill Park and looked towards Richmond Hill. Again the day was slightly overcast, giving a peaceful feel to the river, with just a slight breeze ruffling the surface of the water.  This third plein air landscape was completed at Twickenham Riverside, in very different weather conditions - this time there was a stiff breeze rippling the surface of the water and tiny white clouds moving quickly across the sky.
