Susan Jenkins Morning Paintings

My favorite time to paint is early in the morning. When it is quiet and I have had my coffee.My studio is outside so I have a few steps from my house to get to it. I think there is something very intimate in the smaller works having always painted quite large. Painting usually everyday and always in the morning I have chosen the title Morning Paintings.

I have moved back to Cambria! I did have fun in that part of the world and I enjoyed the outings and garden shows but I missed the sea and the cooler weather. It is wonderful to be back and I'm inspired to start painting. Maybe a seascape??
