So far my videos have clocked up over 100,000 views - with the biggest success being on Facebook and Instagram (www.facebook.com/howardleepainting and @howard__lee).<br />
<br />
Artfido have shared my drawing of a perfume bottle - probably my most successful video this year so far. This currently has about 93,000 views on their Facebook page share.<br />
<br />
Media used in my latest drawings has been Prismacolor blending pencils and Pitt Pastel pencil. The Prismacolor pencils are very soft and used with a blender pencil and blender pen give brilliant gradation of tone and subtle colour mixing. The result is very much like a fine painting.<br />
<br />
Here are some images of what I've done so far. I'll write another post with some links to the YouTube videos as well.<br />

There were some paintings I did that must still be on display as I'd heard people were asking about them. As my work has changed a lot over the years - especially with the new combination and mixed media techniques - I decided to do them a new set.<br />
<br />
Birds of Britain comprises eight canvases depicting various species. All photographic studies were captured in the North East from Washington Wetlands up to The Farne Islands. The birds were painted and scanned, combined with original imagery and printed to canvas. <br />
<br />
Currently on display at West Boldon the work will be travelling to other venues so watch this space!<br />

The show opened in November and is still on for part of January. Much of the work has now sold but there's still time to purchase something if you've got any money left after the festive season!<br />

These pieces were painted from images supplied by the clients. As with most of my work I combined the painting with aspects of the original image and printed the work to canvas. Finishing touches involved a final layer of acrylic paint resulting in a set of unique mixed media artwork.<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The weather was not on the side of someone taking photographs but I bought an umbrella and explored some favourite sights: Tower of London, Big Ben, The Gherkin, Westminster Bridge. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With the streets covered in rain I played around with composing reflections. One good thing about wet weather is that you are never short of light. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Once I'd painted the images and had them at the editing/combining stage I experimented heavily with skies. The effect of combining photograph with paint has in these pieces had some energetic results. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Also, just for fun, there's an animal hiding in every picture. Enjoy! </div>

In <em>#41 Marsden Rock</em> the layering of the original sky over the painted layer has created a subtle yet dramatic effect. Also here you will see I've brought in some wildlife photographed in the region as a small compositional element. <br />
<br />
The Marsden painting shows nature in a picturesque way. In <span class="userContent"><em>#42 Angel of The North from the A1</em> I took a different approach - showing the landmark in the not so aesthetic way you would normally view it. Traffic crowds the image and the statue itself only occupies a small part of the frame. </span><br />
<span class="userContent"><span class="userContent"></span></span><br />
<span class="userContent"><span class="userContent">A major focal point in <em>#43 The Lakeshore Railroad, South Shields</em> is the miniature train and driver of the foreground. Station platform, trees and smoke cloud recede into quick flourishes of paint. </span></span><br />
<span class="userContent"><span class="userContent"></span></span><br />
<span class="userContent"><span class="userContent">Probably the most successful of this set is <span class="userContent"><em>#44 Portrait of Ruby at Gibside, Gateshead. </em>As the trees loom overhead and the perspective draws the eye inward a small figure runs into the foreground. Despite her size in the image the space around Ruby gives her real presence. </span></span></span><br />

The challenge of a portrait was different to that posed by the prior work - maintaining a loose feel to the brush work but still retaining facial details was to be tricky. However, having painted the image and scanned it in I was able to use many layers to achieve the desired combination with the original photograph. As usual the image was printed to canavs at 60 x 40 cm and the customer was very happy with it. Particularly pleasing was that friends who also saw this portrait made some requests of their own - I'll be posting these once they've been given as gifts. <br />

Most successful in this set are probably #36 and #39 - both paintings show you a glimpse of iconic architecture amongst shops, pavement and even a bus stop. <br />

Each of these images shows stonework in saturated colour, buildings benath dramatic skies. Focal points lie in the ornate windows of the Abbey, the dramatic arch of The Moothouse and a weighty stone park entrance before Queen's Hall.<br />

Large and historic architectural forms seem tiny against expanses of sky, sand and sea. Interiors are busy and complex, full of detail and contrast. With so much subject matter to choose from I'll definitely be returning here.<br />

Trams in their depot at Beamish Open Air Museum glimmer with history while the bold form of The Mallard shines before The National Railway Museum Shildon. The success of these images lies in the contrast of the man made forms against expressive use of paint and colour.<br />

One is a wide view showing the wall rising and falling over rugged terrain, another gives you a feel of being stood close to it and the other sees the dip of the landscape frame a famous sycamore. This latter image is titled 'The Robin Hood Tree' in reference the Kevin Costner scene filmed here many years ago. <br />

A reasonable area has been given to depicting figures, this too helps give character. As with the Durham set there are famous structures throughout but there is also a depiction of everyday elements such as signage on the road or a lampost that obscures the view.<br />

In #19 and #20 the perspective of various architectural forms leads the eye into a fairly distant Cathedral view. This idea of showing a popular landmark within the more everyday surroundings is something I'd like to explore more. <br />

I've only chosen to paint two of the images. In the first I've tried to convey the movement of the Vulcan as it flies in from the coast and swoops round over the beach. It's a stunning sight as the force of the massive plane can be felt by everyone on the ground.<br />
<br />
In the second image a figure in the foreground stoops to photograph one the planes from the Red Arrow display team. A contrast can be seen between the impressive mechnics of the machine and the everyday houses and buildings of the seafront. Most of the colour focus is on the red of the plane but some abstraction has been introduced in the sky. I'd like to continue adjusting the colour palette in the next few works.<br />

Consisting of five works, this set was probably more challenging than previous work due to the highly complex nature of the architecture. Combining the realism of the orignal imagery with the abstract qualities of the paint was quite complicated and I think most succesful in the Apple Store image. It is here I've revived one of my old favourite techniques of splattering the paint on the surface, injecting an energy or dynamism.<br />

In particular I think the Castlehill image to be successful for the atmosphere and sense of place. Being a wintry and rainy day, the cobbles reflected the light and contrasted with the towering silhouette of the spire.<br />

If you can immediately see that two paintings were painted consecutively it should be simpler to compare or read the entire set. Also it means that anyone new to seeing the work can know there must be others to see! <br />
<br />
With that in mind, here is the latest one: <br />

When I painted the 20 Zone image of the Tyne Bridge I was primarily focused on achieving detail through painting, creating photorealistic effects.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Working with photography to create the images that I would paint, I visited a number of cities in different countries with my wide angle lens. The photographs were great images and in painting from them I found I actually wanted to get the best from each medium: detail from photographs, abstract elements from paint.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That's when I remembered a process I'd started to try years ago. Combining the painting and the photograph in layers using both traditional and digital media. I'm enjoying making the images, they are a great way to get the effect I've been after. The question is, if you paint a picture, then scan it, use Photoshop to add some extra detail, then print to a canvas and paint further, what do you actually have? It IS a painting: it's got paint on it. Most of what people see is paint. But the word painting is not really enough. I suppose mixed media might cover it. Maybe 'Mixed media with acrylic/oil on canvas'. It's a bit of mouthful though, not very snappy!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Either way, for now I'll continue experimenting with it. Here are a couple of the latest mixed media artworks I've created.</div>

Using photographs taken around my local city of Newcastle, I first create an abstracted version in acrylic paint on paper. Developing the image before taking it to a canvas, the next stage is to layer the painting with various elements from the original picture. <br />
<br />
Being a new process, I'm still working on the finer aspects. As painterly scenes of urban landscape I think these work well. <br />

Though it's not in a finished state yet, I've been reasonably pleased with the realism in parts of the image. <br />
