On the hottest day in the last 100 years, I rocked up very early (7am) to Hackney Reservoir to find the very organised StoryVault productions having set up a very impressive staging for #laoty day of filming.

This one is based on a trip Jason & I made to Venice back in 2016, I was missing traveling and yearned to be in a different clime. Venice is stunning on any given day, on the day I took the picture this is based on it was before the sun had burnt off the misty start to the day. It gave an ethereal insight into Venice for me and I just love the smokiness of this painting.

This is a beautiful small burst of colour and my first timed canvas taking me just over 2 hours to complete. It really helped to take the pressure off me knowing I could create a work of art I love well within the time allowed in the heat. Anything after this piece was more about keeping my hand in than timeframes so a really significant work of art in the process for me.

So in the first lock-down, we were unable to have all our blended family together. Our family is made up of 3 households with kids in each, Jason and I are the link to them all and we absolutely love having them all together. Because of C_19 in the first lock-down, some households were shielding and together we decided until more was known about the pandemic that we would stay apart and all keep safe.

Charleston holds a very special place in my heart. I was bought up in Lewes, East Sussex, and showed an early interest in all things creative, art especially. Charleston is a short drive away from Lewes and I’ve visited the house many times in my lifetime. In the last few years, Jason & I became Omega members, supporting the ongoing program of events and the development of the heritage of the foundation. It has given me the opportunity to learn more about Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant, and the other amazing creatives that spent time at the property. Of course, this has absolutely influenced the subject of some of my art.
