I originally intended this to be a preliminary sketch for a larger piece. But after living with it for a few days I actually like it as is - scrappiness and everything #watercolor #watercolorsketch #watercolorpainting #watercolorcityscape #cityscape

Just came across this one from 2019. From a trip to Southwick's zoo. Always had a soft spot for this one but apparently the market for camel paintings is somewhat niche. #southwickszoo #camelwatercolor #watercolor #watercolorpainting #animalart #art

Thanks Jeff. Bit of an experiment but it really helps in not overworking things.

Palette knife painting today of two anemones with Paul Foxton. Not my usual choice of tool but I do like it a lot #oilpainting #flowerpainting #floralart #floweroilpainting

Second session on some Paul Foxton roses. Maybe too much? Who knows. End of the first session for comparison. #oilpainting #flowerpainting #rosepainting #art

Big news!! Chroma has finally come down and made an appearance. Phew!!

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 19d

And then this happened. Tempting her with a lickable.

Poor thing. Something obviously stressed her while we were out. If she's not down by tomorrow we're dismantling the cabinets.

As a young scientist at BNFL in the ‘90’s, we had a color specialist come and advise us on what to wear as “professionals”, they said I was “an autumn”

Turns out #chromamagic selfie mode with new magic auto palette shows I’m a 10R 6/2!

Also clothing choices still v. poor! 🤣

Yay!! Yep I can't deny it - the palette feature is indeed amazing. 😀

Michele Clamp Art @micheleclamp.com · 27d

Thank you. And it’s the only reason I buy altoids. The tins are perfect for propping things up on the easel

It's live! ChromaMagic 3 for Mac and iOS is out there. Always nervewracking this bit but I am extremely pleased with this.

Many thanks to all involved especially James Cuff, Paul Foxton, and my lovely testers.

And I happily slept through it all

Thank you. I think the photo effect is because the colors are very natural. The treatment itself is a little looser.
