A frosty cold morning saw myself and artist friend Pete Dimmock out painting. Nothing would dry in the cold so was finished inside later whilst warming up with a nice cup of tea (thanks Pete).

A trip to the English Lake District in Cumbria with artist friend Lea Nixon in November resulted in a few small sketches painted in the open air (and rain).

Welcome to my Blog

Hi, my name is Colin Joyce, an artist living in Fife, Scotland. I will be posting images of recent paintings, the majority of these painted 'en plein air' on sketching trips.

I invite your comments on these paintings and am keen to correspond with other artists who enjoy doing similar things.
