From my ‘A Lincolnshire Bible’ A0 ink and watercolour in Bristol board

‘Legion’ (work in progress) A0 watercolour. After months, nearly a year, of stalling on A Lincolnshire Bible, my ambitious project weaving together the threads of this county’s spiritual and artistic heritage, the paralysis has finally broken.

Annual ‘big clean’ of my oil painting kit. So some of this stuff has been with me for 30 years and more. Cornelissen in London and Salvini in Florence have been deep in my pocket over the years, but the quality has always been superb.

Wow. I’m just going to leave this image for you to absorb. My favourite painting too; Rembrandt’s Jewish Bride. Culled from www.instagram.com/p/DNoiZ_0RsX...

Hi it’s Chloe, I have added these four original artworks to my website! (For sale) Monkeys and hearts, frog looking on, William Blake and the Tyger, the eye tree. If you share this post I will be chuffed. www.chloecumming.com

Two monkey heads left and right and two shiny pink hearts, all floating seductively

A nice delicate frog looking leftwards, yellowy greeny

William Blake’s big eyed pastelly face, and his primitive tiger, warm oranges and shiny eyes

A thick central tree with a single blue eye in the centre, you might categorise this as folk horror if you wanted to, or hauntology

Untitled, 1965 by Cheung Yee (1936-2019) currently in the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. Woodcut of the reversed view of an oracle bone's voids and solid spaces.

Woodcut shows an approximately rectangular shape in black on a grey background, with intersections of grey through the black and grey patterning around the edge which could be bone markings but also look like strange lettering or figuration.
