A lovely way to spend the morning, packing up my latest pet portrait.

It was commissioned for a gift so I can't show it right now, but the client is super happy with it.

Message me if you would like a unique gift creating for your loved one.

Just back from a lovely relaxing cruise.

We sailed from Tilbury, and I was amazed at how many ring necked parakeets we saw down south.

The tropical weather we are experiencing at the moment makes this watercolour feel very appropriate.

I have posted a few sketches on my Instagram, karenpalmerart if you would like to see some of the beautiful places we visited.

We were in Lisbon yesterday for the spring festival.

The Jacoranda trees are amazing and the pastel de nata were delicious.

The sketchbook page with collage was actually done last year. This time there didn't seem to be any time for sketching, but lots of photos.

A beautiful day in Brest France today.

A sketch of the Tanguy Tower in the old town. Most of the city was destroyed in the 2nd world war so very little history remains.

I have also taken a pic of my tiny art kit which is serving me very well.

St Mary's on the Scilly Isles is the first stop on our Cruise.

And what a stop! The weather is stunning and the town is beautiful. We stopped for a coffee and I sketched the Parish Church of Mary the Virgin.

Sorry if I can't reply to comments for a few days, we have no wifi on board.

Bon Voyage x x

Liverpool an Urban Sketch

I get mixed feelings when I sell a painting. It's all packaged up and ready to go and I am transported right back to the moment I sketched it on location at the USK annual event. Delighted to actually be selling my pieces and sad to let them go.

Now the weather is getting warmer I am looking forward to getting out and about more.

Look out for some European scenes next week.
