Ok, so I’m going to call this done... I’ve just spent the last hour and a half looking at it, scanning the surface, making judgement calls about the shapes of rocks, the subtle colour of reeds, that extraordinary orangery pop at the top/in the middle. I’ve come to the conclusion that I could tinker with it endlessly, but I’m not sure any of it would change the painting’s character. Whilst I had no intention of doing this, it seems that the last three paintings are the foundation of a series... #markthompson #thedailypracticeofpainting #contemporarypainting #postcontemporaryart #zincwhite #artoninstagram #artistsoninstagram #instaart #instaartist #landscapepainting #gamblinneomegilp #coldwaxmedium #available #proartebrushes (at Skintebo, Västra Götalands Län, Sweden) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuT0KGwB9F3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11tsef0zhs6l3

A close up of just the image. Reflections: I need to make these twice the size (going up to paper size 46 x 61cm / 18 x 24ins) I would like to try a large painting on Aluminium, maybe 120 x 170cm... now to find a supplier in Sweden... any ideas??? #markthompson #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #thedailypracticeofpainting #japanesebrush #archespaper #ontothenext #creativelifehappylife #industrial #workonpaper #watercolour #watercolor #goldenacrylics #sepiaindigo (at Skintebo, Västra Götalands Län, Sweden) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqHr56aj46T/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lshqhnvvxftb
The landscape side of ‘The World Distilled’. Only three days to go... 😱 #markthompson #proudgalleries #london #theworlddistilled #exhibition #artexhibition #thedailypracticeofpainting #contemporarypainting #contemporaryart #creativelifehappylife #landscapepainting #ilovemyjob #thursday (at Proud Galleries) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsn4eJkDpgc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aisi2hv1nze8
Complete. This painting has been somewhat hanging over me for a while... started in earnest, let go of, restarted, put away, ignored, moved, ignored again... the revised, renewed and completed. The landscape - this landscape - has an ever present hand in my work, and whilst I don’t think it benefits my evolution as a painter to always be turned towards it, it stands to be re-engaged with when necessary. It’s a subconscious prompt. Photography nerd section: Sigma Art Lenses are razor sharp with no distortion whatsoever!

So here it is my friends and colleagues! I really hope to see you there for the opening, but I intend to be around for a little while to catch up, meet and greet.

I’m going to be posting variations of this an annoying amount over the next six weeks, so apologies in advance! That said, I am truly looking forward to sharing this body of work with you in London. I hope you can make it to the show - more to follow.
