There is a spirit of energy and vigor in mountains, and they impart it to all who approach their presence.

A productive day in the studio working on these two 80 x 80cm canvases. 👩‍🎨

I've been wanting to explore the dreamlike landscapes, or dreamscapes as I've been calling them, that have started appearing in my STOP PAINTING Project on a larger scale. Trying to keep them vibrant while I start to refine them but I'm excited about where these are going.
Time to go wash all those dirty brushes!

Another work in progress. I'm loving these colour combinations. More and more I'm connecting much deeper with the abstracted layers and I feel my work slowing developing in a different direction.

If you are following my STOP PAINTING Project tomorrow I'll be sharing what painting I've worked back over. 👩‍🎨

Another work in progress, acrylic on wood. Sometimes the rawness of the first layers is the best. ♥️

A closer look at today's STOP PAINTING Project art

A closer look at today's STOP PAINTING Project artwork "Hilma Af Klint". The cat from the last painting didn't want to go 🐱 and the white tower in the middle reminds me of a painting I did of Lough Oughter castle in Cavan for my folklore exhibition "The Hollow" a few years ago.

I've been working on this shamanic type painting today for @start_artfair in @saatchi_gallery in September. The main figure has been peeking out through background layers of paint for a while so today she finally got the chance to fully reveal herself. 🌘🌖

If you've been following along, tomorrow I'll be back with a STOP PAINTING Project piece. 👩‍🎨

Today I've been back working on my grumpy cat painting for @start_artfair ... and he needed a crown 👑😊.

Today I worked on this painting for The @start_artfair in The @saatchi_gallery in September in London. 🇬🇧

This painting can be hung in both directions so if you feel like a change you can just turn it around!
The option of hanging a painting both ways is something I've been thinking about for a while. I'd love to develop a full collection of 2 sided paintings in the future.

So I've been seeing this cat in the corner of this painting for a while, so today I started to bring him out. 🐱. Inspired by the white grumpy cat from one of my STOP PAINTINGS. Still a lot to do yet on this piece. What do you think so far?
I'm preparing this painting for my exhibition at @start_artfair in @saatchi_gallery London. 🇬🇧

Tomorrow I'll be back with another STOP PAINTING. 👩‍🎨
