The Big Chill Swim, December 2016

The Big Chill Swim postcard

The Big Chill Swim postcard

I was delighted to be asked by Chillswim to design their event image, which appeared on the t-shirts and some rather sumptuous purple goodybags. And I also have it printed onto some postcards.

New painting! "Floating" In watercolour and a touch of gold leaf. And if you would like a lovely print with extra gold leaf on it, I have given the fist one to Broomfield Pond Swim Society to be raffled! To enter, like, pledge and share their campaign - rules on this instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/B0jTY2PF9jv/?fbclid=IwAR0WlUqBVvu7uPwPG8rCYdq9UEttDhCD7EL3lv0w-pbQbYREzOSOjjI9lVc ...and if you don't win, the prints are also for sale in my shop, but please do go and have a look at the Broomfield campaign anyway, it's a great campaign. #artforswimmers #outdoorswimmingsociety #OutdoorSwimmer #broomfieldpondswimsociety

"The Henley Mile" (art prints now in my Etsy shop - link at the bottom) Inspired by the swims at the Henley Swim Festival 2019: This is a rare drawing for me - a swimming drawing about a swim that I didn't do. But I was actually there all the same. For three years in a row now, I've had an artwork stand at this marvellous festival of swimming, so it seemed about time I recreated it as a piece of art. The landmark is of course the temple on Temple Island, silently witnessing the events of the day, as it has done for close on 250 years. There were wave after wave of different swimmers throughout the day, and I have arranged them as if time has been collapsed to a few minutes - the blue wave at the front, who went off first thing in the morning, the reds at the back who swam in the last wave, gold hats sprinkled through them. Gold hats swam four times. I have left out the last 3 waves - there were two club waves, and there was the very last wave: the duck wave. Maybe none of the swimmers noticed this one, it went off as all the exhibitors were packing up. Maybe only I noticed it, because, unannounced and un-cheered, but not unappreciated, a wave of ducks came down the river, the water finally theirs once more.

Look what I have got.... ...yep, I had fully intended to have a new hat design about now, but as soon as I sold out, people were asking for more of the old ones. And a girl can only order so many hats in one go. So I hope I got some of your favourites again... All in my shop now: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/WaterDrawnArt Feel free to share with everyone :-D #outdoorswimmingsociety #artforswimmers #OutdoorSwimmer
