Great little art class today at Townsend House in Minehead.

'Summer Rain on Exmoor'
We used brown packing paper today to help create texture our paintings.
Applying the texture at the start will allow us to move away from adding too much detail in the foreground later on, the paper wrinkles become the detail!

Well done to everyone that attended today. 🙂🎨🎨🎨

Reflections on an Exmoor Sunset
By Leigh Cripps

I decided to go for a walk to watch the sunset on Exmoor last evening, with Oreo, our cat, trailing quietly behind me.
The day had been hot and exhausting, and I wasn’t inclined to climb the hill.
Yet, I am grateful that we made the effort.
At the top, we were rewarded with a breathtaking view—one that inspires a kind of primeval wonder and compels you to simply stare in awe.
“Just look at that,” I said to Oreo. “We can watch this for free, something that’s rare these days.” Oreo seemed unimpressed, choosing instead to sniff around and scratch contentedly

As I gazed at the changing landscape, I noticed the subtle signs of the season shifting.
The nights are already drawing in, and soon, the sun will lose its summer strength.
Nature has a way of reminding us that we cannot stop the hands of time, and I wondered how many more sunsets I would be fortunate enough to witness.

Who knows, and with the world slowing down around us, we just sat there and treasured this one.
