QoL: Lakeside Boathouses

Having painted a series of disasters this past couple of weeks, I sought to get back to basics with just some watercolour, oil pastel and gouache.

I started this while at Skanda Vale, our local hospice. They are eager to see how it turned out, although I kept warning them that I still had plenty of opportunities to ruin it. So, I shall carry it in for them to see. I hope they are not disappointed; there was lots of chattering about my upcoming exhibition, so I feel I have set the bar high.

It feels good to have the support that I get from the volunteers and staff at Skanda Vale. It reminds me that Jacqui and I are not alone in facing my deteriorating health, which involves some increasingly achy bones and a heaviness to my ribcage that sometimes makes breathing a bit laboured. There are some volunteers whom I would love to hug, but I am not sure that is a PC thing to do in this modern world. I guess I shall have to ask before I launch into giving what I call "Boob Squashers".

Another lovely piece. I second the wish that you get the ok for boob squishers. I'm glad you & Jacqui are not feeling alone. You certainly have friends and fans here too. Wishing you all the best.

the way you employ multiple media … gwash, oil , etc. , makes your artworks visually pop and has beautiful color manipulation. Good stuff Brent.
