Painting of a Farrow & Ball Sample Pot

Paint Pot

June 11, 2013 · by Helen · in Daily Painting, Painting, Still Life

OK, this isn’t brilliant, but like all of these sketches something is learned. The paintings from this week have all been done in around an hour. I’m not practised enough at working so quickly, and an object such as this…

Painting of a bulldog paper weight on a book

Bulldog

June 10, 2013 · by Helen · in Daily Painting, Painting, Still Life

Daisies

June 9, 2013 · by Helen · in Daily Painting, Still Life

About Helen Davison Bradley


Based near Cirencester in the Cotswolds, I mainly work in oils and charcoal using time honoured techniques.
A keen advocate of the practise of drawing from life (believing it to be crucial in developing the observational skills of the artist), I feel that the interaction between artist and subject is the defining essence in the creation of a piece of art.

Brownhound? Huh?

Brownhound is the name of my web/graphic design business, which I have now stepped away from in order to concentrate on pursuing a career as a practising fine artist.
Having used the URL and email address for so long (and in honour of Sophie, the studio dog who inspired the name), I decided to stick with it as my point of contact. I'm glad you found me.
