This is another seascape from a photo taken on our holiday in Crete. It is done on Sennelier la carte board, which I didn't like at first, but I'm getting used to it now and getting to like it more and more.

About Me
- Angie
- My name is Angie Wood and I live on a narrowboat on the beautiful Oxford canal. A long time ago in the eighties I studied Art and Design at Goldsmiths College and went on to be a paste up artist and then a graphic designer. I’ve never stopped painting and drawing though – I painted pet and animal portraits for a while and over the past two years have begun creating small oil paintings of vintage objects, textiles and flowers. I collect items from fleamarkets to paint and my little narrowboat is getting fuller all the time! I’m particularly delighted by colourful patterns on textiles and ceramics and I also love painting reflective surfaces. I’m usually attracted to items from the early part of the twentieth century, which bring back memories of my great aunts’ and grandmother’s cosy houses. My artistic aim is to pay homage to the things I paint by observing them as closely as I can, and to create something beautiful that will hopefully make people as happy as I was when I was making it!

Truly a stunning work!! I will be following your BloG ... I SO need inspiration! WhEEEEE!
This sea scape seems emotionally charged with the colors and shapes you felt. I must tell you I so love the sketches you did of your boat--very free yet full of details and wonderful!
WOW! I have never really tried pastels very much - I'm too heavy handed with them.
You've created such mood, atmosphere and movement in your painting.
Your other pastels are fantastic too. At first glance I thought the painting of the church you posted on the 25th November was a photograph. The highlights in the sea are something else!
Annie you have beautiful work here. It's a joy to scroll through your blog. I hope by now blogging is an enjoyable habit, because it is fun to read your blog, I'll keep reading. Thanks for your comment.
Lovely, Annie. I like the shadows from the clouds on the water.

Super sky!! And lots of movement in the sea - real feeling of a storm coming. Full of atmosphere.
Thanks everyone - I really appreciate your encouragement and comments! I am still learning with pastels but love using them.
