This is the first in a series of large canvasses painted outside in my garden. 
It's inspired by being outside and seeing the sky and grass colours subtly changing throughout the day. I especially love the late afternoon and early evening, when colours change and soften with the gorgeous evening light.
The title of this painting, 'Apricot Sky' came to me after I had been driving down my lane - which is rather hilly, and seeing the bands of evening light in June after a sunny day. The shift from blue to mauve, apricot to verdigris was remarkable. 
This painting is acrylic on canvas, the canvas is made by Birmingham based company Harris Moore and is excellent quality. The paints are Golden acrylics, I love them as they are highly pigmented and give a wonderful tone.
The canvas is unframed. It has white painted edges and will come prepared ready to hang on your wall.

Sandy sells both portfolio work and creates substantial commissions for both private and corporate clients. Her work has also been published as fine art prints. Artists statement: I live and work in Kent, in the South-East of England. I work with landscapes, from which I draw my inspiration. The play of light and shadow, and the in-the-moment experience of absorbing the world around me inform my work. I am also drawn by my memories of a childhood spent outside, the visual impact and pleasure of that still resonates with me. I love colour and texture and in my work am always attempting to use these elements to create a harmonious balance. I enjoy working in an experimental way with different materials, I frequently throw paint at my canvas, and work with the canvas on the floor, dripping paint onto it. The spontaneity that gives me very valuable.
