About Me
- vivien
- I'm interested in painting the light and colours of landscapes as they change through seasons, the time of day or weather. Seascapes feature strongly in my work as I love the coast, a love which developed when I lived near the sea as a child in Cornwall, Scotland, Malta and Gibraltar - each place with its special light and colour. I realise too that I love the edges of things - for instance the coast, where the sea meets the land, the edges of woods where the trees meet the open fields. I paint in most media and experiment with digital imagery - as a creative process related to my painting but also creating work that exists in its own right. Another interest is photography, mainly as something in its own right, as I only rarely paint from photographs. The same elements interest me here as in my painting. Apart from painting and photography, I teach art to adults and have all the normal preoccupations, trials and tribulations of women with families ... and cats.

Now you have to tell me!
Your welcome, you got it up, and it looks fabulous.
I'll email you Katherine - or you can click on the link under the slide show and it'll take you to the site - it is really user friendly to set up and you can just send it to the blog from there - I could do with a different heading but you can't seem to edit that
and thanks again Alfreda
vivien, you can edit the heading or title. when you log in and it brings up the slide shows you have there is a edit at the top of the section of each slide show. You can go back to your slide show and change it.
oh thanks j/a I'll look into that :)
Muddy Red Shoes - I'm sorry - I clicked your comment to publish at the same time as J's and it's disappeared into the ether! Thank you though - and I'm a regular reader of your blog :)
