Severn summer

This painting captures a warm summer’s day when three teenagers were paddling in the River Severn in Newtown. They were laughing and shrieking as they braved the deeper water, in a moment of sheer enjoyment. The river itself was shady but patches of sunlight were playing through the trees.

“Painting tip- Think about getting a range of tones from very dark to very light within your pictures. It adds to the interest and impact of the picture.” Sue Newham

Pagham at sunset

This oil painting was painted after a walk around Pagham Harbour in West Sussex at dusk. The harbour dries out at low tide and was beginning to empty. The purple cloud bank in the sky covered the evening sun, but its light reflected in the water. It was a peaceful and wonderful scene. Pagham is a nature reserve and home to many seabirds, especially over winter.

Pour over me

This reflects my desire to stand and soak in the living waters of God. Look carefully and you will see a person standing in the flow of water.

The waterfall image is one that has become very personal, capturing the cry of my heart, “Lord, I want more of your love, power and presence in my life!” This is the seventh painting of the same title.
The verse on the back of the greetings card reads, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” John 7 : 37-38

Painting tip: “Oil paint is fantastic for being able to create veils of water over a subject, but you need to let each layer dry properly before adding another.” Sue Newham

The message on the front of the card reads, “When life turns you upside down…God always knows which way is up.”

The verse on the back of the card reads, “Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you.” Psalm 143 : 8

“These ducks were so obliging, diving as if they were doing synchronised swimming! They really made me chuckle.” Sue
