Daily Sketch No.200 Rain again, Saddleworth Moor, England

Yet another day of drama in the hills. I like this type of weather - forever changing, rain one minute and then a glint of sunshine through the clouds, creating powerful images for a landscape artist.

Daily Sketch No.199 Heavy Rain over Saddleworth, England

Back in the UK for two weeks for an exhibition. My UK studio is in the Saddleworth area north of Manchester. Beautiful and rugged but also well known for rain!

Daily Sketch No.198 Dark Skies over Barga, Tuscany

The past few days have been unsettled, dark rain clouds drifting around. This simple sketch of the foreground trees silhouetted against the dark sky makes for a dramatic and bold image.

Just getting around to uploading my Daily Sketches. As you head down the hillside towards Barga, I came across this yellow house on the edge which stood out in the soft light of early morning.
