There's nothing odd about it really. I paint (or knit or sew or make something, anything) full time, i.e. everyday. So when it came to deciding what to do with the grimly dull kitchen wall, stripped of old wallpaper, patched with grey plaster and with no grand kitchen design units to adorn it... the obvious thing was to brighten it up with fresh blue sky and the calm sea view I've always wished we'd got in this house.
Difficult to photograph it properly but maybe you can see that it pushes the wall further away into the distance, which is rather effective.
Here is a close up of the bit where I want to dive in for a splash of cool sea water:
In my studio, meanwhile, I've been painting a bright and flowing abstract on the theme of 'hugging' and, this morning, I started an oil painting of a mountain view.
