This was such a fun perspective to paint from! Have you tried something new with your art lately? View across the volcanic plains from a very old volcano in Victoria, Australia. #gouache #landscapepainting #ArtYear

I love painting shadows on white objects. I exaggerated the blues to complement the yellow centres. This was painted on the couch whilst cringing my way through the first Alien film. The perfect pairing 👌 #gouache #ArtYear #art #floralpainting

The fish weren't biting so I snuck some painting in. Didn't want to come home empty handed! #gouache #pleinair #sketchbook #ArtYear

Thank you @joelraivio.com for the fungi inspiration! This kept me busy while the thunderstorm lashed down outside #ArtYear #gouache #sketchbook

These grasses seem to keep jumping out at me when I go down to the stream near my house. It's always rocks, plants, and water with me! Although I suppose most landscapes are made of those ingredients... What are your go-to subjects? #gouache #pleinair #ArtYear #sketchbook

I painted this during a hike a couple of months ago (Cape Pillar, Tasman National Park). I'm so lucky to live near such spectacular places down here in Tassie. Let me know if you have ever visited! #pleinair #gouache #sketchbook

Anything with strong contrast catches my attention. Today I tried to capture the bright sunlight on this stately eucalypt ☀️ #pleinair #gouache #sketchbook Is this how tags work on this platform? I guess I'll find out!

Hello! I'm new to Bluesky and only started sharing my art on social media a few months ago. I love all things gouache and watercolour and can't get enough of painting outside. I take my plein air kit with me every time I leave the house - just in case the mood strikes! Hoping to find other gouachers
