I’m planning new paintings at the moment, ordere I’m planning new paintings at the moment, ordered canvas & stretcher bars today, and thinking of colours & composition. At the weekend I had the delightful @onegoodgift_official at the studio to photograph my painting Unexpected Landscape - it’s one of a selection of my works now available from their online gallery. If you’d like to take a look then pop to my bio & click on my links. It looks great simply presented like this don’t you think?

Further work done on this yesterday...the detail o Further work done on this yesterday...the detail on yesterday’s post is on here, can you spot it. Painting is a patient process of stops & starts for me, this may be complete, but probably not. Each painting is a private journey and I keep travelling with it until I don’t want it to take me any further. #painting #artprocess #oilpainting #contemporarypainting #contemporaryart #artist #art #peinturecontemporaine #arte #peinture #abstractart #abstractartist #abstractpainting #abstractexpressionism #abstraction #colourledpainting #colourtheory #colour #oilpaintings #workinprogress #artstudio #lizfoster

It’s a long time since I posted one of my head m It’s a long time since I posted one of my head monoprints on here...but I’ve started a new series and they are on my mind. And, although at first glance, they may seem disparate to my painting, I have always drawn, and drawn faces & figures in particular - they are really important to my practice. This lady emerged today from the ink & paper. They are never portraits, and they happen quickly before the ink drys or I over think the drawing. I imagine them as sculptural forms, often on plinths and possibly huge structures in the landscape. #monoprinting #monoprint #drawing #draw #faces #ink #paper #art #arte #printmaking #printing #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #artstudio #artist #womenartists #lizfoster
