New Paintings by Paula Formanek

A new original "Golden Trio", oil with knife on panel, 20 x 25 cm, part of my "Sunflower Series". I completed this painting quickly with some leftover paint on my last day in Europe. It's now drying in my studio. Soon, I plan to use this to create a large painting.



This is one of my new paintings "Summer Sweet", oil with knife on panel 25 x 30 cm, recently painted en plein air near the Czech Forest.

"Shelly Sheep" by Lynda Cookson

Shelly the sheep was a daft animal who lived in the fields next to our house in Ireland. She would occasionally find a way to go AWOL from her field and come and stare me out through my studio window, slobbering on the glass. She had that wonderful, bossy stare that those black-faced sheep seem to know how to do so well!

Charcoal Line Drawings on Monoprints by Lynda Cookson

I have been having fun sorting paintings from my stock. They've been packed away for a while and are only being brought out now for some Open Studio days during summer.

Here's a rather different collection of 4 Charcoal Line Drawings on Original Abstract Monoprints.

During a couple of life drawing classes a few years back I found two of the models to be rather grumpy in temperament which put me off formal drawings. Instead I produced comical line drawings to counter their grumpiness. Later I repeated the ones I liked onto original abstract monoprints.

"Green Tea Pot" by Lynda Cookson

This is reaching back a few years when some studies and daily paintings were signed TPP as they were done as demos for students of my studio, The Painters' Palette. TPP was the official signature of work produced in The Painters' Palette studio. They sold on eBay at the time (I no longer run an eBay store).

I have always loved tea pots, for what they represent as well as for their shape ... fat and round with useful appendages and an interesting lid to top it off. To me they represent family and friends, comfort and home - and all that goes with that.

So I present "Green Tea Pot" ...

"Pink Ballet Shoes" by Lynda Cookson

Music and dance have always been important stimulants for me. In fact, my first own-business was a ballroom dance studio! I have never had a ballet lesson but had contact with ballet teachers, as well as Spanish dance teachers, which gave me a taste of the depth and love in their lives. To me, ballet shoes are things of real beauty ... from the perfection of their own creation, to the support, love and life they give to their dancers - all finally depicted in their wrinkles, stains and frays.

"Pink Ballet Shoes" is still for sale and you just need to contact me.

Honister Pass, first painting in my new studio by Sarah Morley



This week I have been really busy, moving studios from my tiny, cramped and windowless studio  -  to a new huge studio, still within Vernon Mill, Stockport. It has four  20ft windows and masses of wonderful light! I am blessed! I will be running classes in palette knife painting, taking over the classes ran by the previous incumbent - another knife painter, Alan Knight - and hopefully adding  a few new people as well. So if anyone in the North West of England fancies trying their hand at knife painting please contact me on 07946432818. You will be made very welcome!

Here is this weeks's painting - a large 3ft x 3ft canvas. It's the view of the valley in the Honister Pass, Cumbria. It is painted with knives ( of course!) and I am still trying to decide whether the foreground is finished as I had a few issues with the rock pools in the bed of the stream. Any thoughts gratefully received. This is expected to retail at $700 plus shipping.
