nothing simple

since posting last life changes and family commitments have meant a decline in studio output.

I Heart Herts, Group Show, Letchworth Arts Centre

A new exhibition including my recent drawings and paintings. The drawings are from direct observation from various points in Hitchin. My favourite outpost is Windmill Hill, near Hitchin Girls School. The view is fabulous and I have been visiting this spot to sit and think for about 15 years so to draw the view seems natural. I have also a favourite view from Uplands Avenue across to Wymondley and Kingshott School. The paintings in the show are derived from my drawings and the influences are Len Tabner, Peter Doig, Whistler and Turner among others. This is part of an ongoing project so there is much more to come.

New Dawn a New Day

I am taking creating this blog as a positive step towards independance as Tina Culverhouse the Artist of many pursuits. I have been spurred on by looking at the Daily Painting blog by Justin and have made a personal commitment not to be left behind by this technical stuff. Having been part of a blog in the past which was never kept up for whatever reason and been addicted to Flickr but found it swallowed hours of time at a go I am going to get to grips with my digi camera and get my ass into gear and show the world what I am made of, whether it likes it or not.

Here goes!
