My work table - little WIPThe sun is so seductive. I love the way it slices through my studio and dances its way across tubes of paint, over the water jar and along the windowsills. But most of all, I love the way it makes my paintings sing.
Sunshine brushes Despite dire warnings of snow across England today, my celestial friend shone for a little while this morning and I was drawn into its wintery warmth to work before mean grey clouds arrived and bullied it into submission.

Thanks for sharing.

What wonderful pictures/shadows..

Happy SSS..
The sight of all those tubes of paint made me want to join in! Loved the easel shadow...
Beautiful. I love a work space and especially with sun shadows. Happy SSS!
I love love love these shadow shots! Very arty :) I really enjoy having a little peek into your workspace & seeing some of your artwork. That was fun! Hope you have an awesome Sunday :)
I always love looking at art in progress and drool at the sight of tubes of paint.
So glad you are doing s
Shadow-shot Sundays.
Tracy has got a real group going.
I love your shadow shots and agree, on days when the sun is bright it's a joy working on any art. Today I had sunlight but no energy and a lot of pain, it got way too frustrating.

Some really great shadows! And some really beautiful colors as well!
Oh, what tasty photos and peeks at your pieces. I just think it's magical that you can make art like that. Truly.
Happy Sunday...

Hi Tessa, I'm visiting from Lori times five and I had to tell you that your brush shadow shot is so inspirational that I think I want to paint as well! I'm also outside of my birth country, I moved to the eternally warm Puerto Rico.
What a great shot - the shadow of the paintbrushes is clever too!
We admire your paintings! Painting is something we never did much of in art classes....we liked drawing with charcoal & pastels - painting wasn't really for us, so we appreciate your talent here!!
..."In placid hours well~ pleased we dream"... its just how I feel looking at your photos today...of course the sun finds you and your paintings,it sees the light in you :)

I like your workspace! I have a question, do you sell any of your works? I don't mean to be rude, but your work is terrific, I can understand if it's personal. Well, I will return to see more of your posts!
Cheers,

I love the shot of the brushes!
Thanks for the look into your work space. I like your desk. All those little dots of color.
Lovely! There's nothing more inspiring than sunlight - it really does stir the creative rhythm - and the light in your shots looks so deliciously golden!
HI AA.
I've photo tagged you over at 'my place' as they say. Sorry, I got tagged, and amsupposed topass it on. It squite a fun one though. When I received an award I failed to pass it on to 8, yes 8 others, so thought I'd better do this photo tag thing.
even your work area is a work of art :)
This is a beautiful blog. Glad I found it!

I love the fact that your brushes can sing :-).

And the world is perfect...
That breath of light,
That transient radiance...
Reaches me with the self same power and warmth that a torch, a flame, a sun....would hope to engender
Thank you for the warmth of your spirit,
Much love, M
Tingling colours full of life. Love your art, so vibrant...
your paintings are like the sun - they shimmer and vibrate and give off so much warmth!
I struggled yesterday to post a comment and now i see it actually went through twice! sorry about that :-)
You will never be to late for any party I have. xoxoxo
I noticed a theme with the letter L. Long legs and liberality both let you see over other people's heads.
Love Renee
I love your blog. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing.

Tessa, it’s fun to see your workspace and glimpse at your process. I love the light on the brushes. The illustration painting in the post below is so gorgeously vibrant. Like Mama Shujaa, I’d love to learn more about your creative process.
Ohhhhhhh! I'm so excited you took me into your studio! To see your visions coming to fruition.
I see how the sunshine makes your paintings sing! What a wonderful space you have!
