Hilary Sinclair

Hilary Sinclair I paint in oils and watercolour, choosing subjects I love and that inspire me. I try to capture light and shade and the beauty of the world around us.

Hello and welcome to my FaceBook art page, I hope you enjoy the paintings here. I mainly paint in oils but also enjoy watercolours. As you will see I love to study and paint still life, as well as landscapes and figurative scenes. My paintings are for sale, if you are interested in purchasing or would like further information, please message me!

Two small rose paintings that I have on the go. Both are the Bart’s Rose-bred to celebrate St Bartholomew’s Hospital in London. I trained as a nurse there in the 1980’s so it is a special subject for me! They start as compact buds that open into huge and dramatic blooms

Day 31 I made it!! 31 days of painting or drawing from life. Some days I really loved, others were just hard work. I'm glad I did it for the constant practice but I'm also going to enjoy my weekend! These are the trees that we look onto from the front of our house. An amazing view, I've wanted to try and paint them for a while. In the warm and keeping comfortable! Church meadow trees, watercolour.

Day 30   Coate water again today to enjoy the sun and practice winter trees. Only one day to go for the challenge!

Day 29 still on the freesias! Felt they deserved a second chance and I like it much better. Ampersand aquabord, would like to try more on this surface but it’s quite expensive if it goes wrong! The colours are more vibrant than in the photo 🤔

Day 28 freesias (which I had four attempts at before deciding to call it a day with the final version 🥴😂😂 ) I found them incredibly hard, funny that with the last one I ditched trying to draw them and it worked the best. Hoping for better success tomorrow.

Day 27 Rainy day blues watercolour sketch of our cat mojo surveying the grey and wet outside - wind, rain, and whilst I was painting her, hail. For once she didn’t move, no incentive to go outside!

Day 26 three small shells in watercolour. I wondered about eggshells but the sea won! The drawing was probably the hardest part and still not right but the practice was good 😬

Day 25 well I was down at coate water again today but was too late for the lovely sunshine and too early for quite a dramatic sunset! It’s quite hard capturing a grey landscape I found 🥴 Met lots of nice people who were interested and encouraged me to stick with it. Winter trees from the back of Syd’s copse 8x10

Day 24   It’s a scraper!😆 can’t win them all but sort of enjoyed myself…

Day 23 I am very fortunate (and excited!) to have a new studio in our garden to work in. Over the past few weeks I’ve been decorating it and today I was able to try and paint the view. A christening! On gessoed card approx 8in square
