What a night! The pv of ING Discerning Eye, below lovely Richard Ansett photographer, saying lovely things about my work and Portal on the Polly Morgan wall. Thanks to ING Discerning Eye for putting on a jolly good show and also the judges #richardansett #PollyMorgan
When you see a gallery post showing hanging in progress and see your about to be hanged work on the floor in the corner and get inapropriately excited... ING Discernign Eye exhibition at the Mall Galleries from 14th to 23rd November. #ingdiscerningeye #mallgallerieslondon
Thrilled to have had my painting, 'It's a wonderful life', selected for the Linden Hall Studio's Winter Group Show. Looking forward to seeing the exhibition and meeting the other artists. #lindenhallstudio #wintergroupshow #contemporarypaintingartist
Finally work in progress is finished - with new title, The Way We Were. This theme of vintage nostalgia pops up compulsively and through painting I reconnect to feelings and textures of the past. Thanks to my siblings and my parents, wherever they are... #oilpainting #portraits
A welcome break from interminable work in progress - my gorgeous Kyri - a lovely afternoon chewing the fat. #oilpainting #portrait
After 6 hours in the studio today, am almost too knackered to type! Work in progress, Stand IV (detail) using vintage black and white family photos (with added siblings) and experimenting with colour to express feeling. #oilpainting #portraits
A humbling Wednesday night at the Eden Studio life drawing session at Fort Hotel Margate - some of the drawings are done in one or two minutes! It never gets any easier but when a small bit feels right - there is nothing so satisfying. #lifedrawing #drawinglive #figuredrawing
Work in progress, Stand - first in new series, based on old black and white family photographs, we don't know if it's me or my husband, but no matter - we've all been there... #oilpainting #figurepainting #childhood
Absolutely made up to have two paintings selected for the ING Discerning Eye Prize in London, they will be on show in November.

The wonderful Lewis who sat for me for hours this afternoon while his friend kept him entertained. Lovely day. #oilpainting #portrait #paintingfromobservation
People often ask me how I draw the musicians as they move so much, and it's true that yesterday, I needed patience and perseverance when drawing ace guitar player Billy Lingood but really good music always helps me to stay focused. #thankyouforthemusic #drawinglive #portrait
...as an artist, I am fascinated with sensory perception and how art can speak in multi-sensory ways, providing a shortcut or short circuit to the subconscious, accessing deeper layers of feeling. And Jenny Saville’s work speaks volumes." ruthgeldard.wordpress.com #jennysaville
Inner States - Why an Encounter with Jenny Saville's Paintings made me Think about Dolphins and Zebra Finches. New blog post: ruthgeldard.wordpress.com #jennysaville #nationalportraitgallery #oilpainting #sensoryperception
Wonderful day closeted with my lovely Mimi, trying to capture her before she goes off to uni. Such a significant moment this transitional stage, and I'm not gonna lie, I will miss her... May the road rise with you favourite granddaughter x #shesleavinghome #alaprima #oilportrait
From the archives: The Bag Sessions no. 7 Sadie's Bag exhibited as part of The Museum for Object Research exhibition - Neither Use Nor Ornament in Oxford 2018.
Helicon player from the Native Oyster Band, playing at the Magnet last night. The helicon is the most mysterious, non-sensical instrument in terms of drawing! My rubber has repetitive strain injury... Brilliant gig though - #broadstairsfolkweek2025 #thanksforthemusic #drawinglive
Finally got there at last! Here is, Meet the Nations, 5ft x 2ft, another deepdive into memory, nostaligia and cultural mores. Blog post to follow. #nationaldress #1960s #civicpride #oilpainting #figures
When you visit old friends from the past for a catch-up and not only did we chat like we had never been apart - but then you find one of your old paintings (another old friend) in their living room made more beautiful with their reflections and collagey window cut outs.
