On Wednesday I painted the trees on Castle Meadows Abergavenny and the Blorenge both starting to show their autumnal colours. I’m hoping to do more autumnal painting this week if the fog clears.

Good luck to all the cyclists in the #tourofbritain tomorrow heading up the Blorenge (or the Tumble as the cyclists call it) TWICE! Absolute madness.
I’m sure the spectators will appreciate the incredible views.

Blaenavon Heather towards the Channel
8”x6” oil on board
I wanted to catch the last of the heather before it fades so I popped out on Wednesday, I kept having to stop painting as showers passed through but it was very enjoyable.

The Skirrid from Keepers Road
8” x 6” oil on board
I love this view of Skirrid especially in the summer when the fields glow a golden hay colour.

Such a beautiful morning to paint this view of Abergavenny and Skirrid from Gilwern Hill, lots of green and distant blue, lots of wildflowers and birdsong.

Castle Meadows and Hazy Blorenge
8” x 6” oil on board
This time of year the bright fresh greens are so vibrant against the blue haze on the mountains in the late afternoon.

Keepers Pond

Painted on Tuesday morning, when I started painting I had it to myself, very rare these days before a few walkers turned up and placed themselves in the painting

Pink Heather and the Usk Valley
8”x6” oil on board
Painted in August from the Foxhunter memorial on the Blorenge looking across the Usk Valley when the heather is at its best, it always catches me by surprise every year

Made the most of the fine weather in #Abergavenny after a Ramblers Cymru meeting and went exploring. The town is almost entirely surrounded by mountains and hills; #Blorenge #SugarLoaf & #SkirridFawr among them. #BannauBrycheiniog #Ramblers #SaturdayFun #Monmouthshire
We have some good waxcap areas on the mountainsides. Went out this week to see what we could find. Downloaded the app and will report! #BannauBrycheiniog
