Watercolour Workshop - Starting to paint in Watercolour

Next one-day workshop is planned for Saturday 16th July.  The day will run from 10-4 and all refreshments will be included (Please bring a packed lunch).  This workshop is ideal for beginners or anyone who needs to brush up their basic skills of watercolour painting.  I will cover stretching paper; flat washes; graded washes; wet-in-wet; colour mixing; dry brush. 
We will complete one watercolour painting and you will go home with a finished, mounted painting. Cost of the day is £25 and the class is limited to 8 in number.  All students will be given 20% discount on any materials purchased.  Please contact Delia on 01778 344144 to book your place.   The painting below is typical of a workshop painting.

Snettisham Church - watercolour

I've had another lovely day with my 'Open Studio' with a stream of visitors all day.  Many came along with an interest in joining a class and I am including a watercolour painting used as a project for the groups last year.  I try to pick paintings which will give the best opportunity to practice lots of techniques.

Jazzy finished, background to go.  By the next time you see this he will be standing in a beautiful meadow shaded by a tree.

Jazzy - Miniature Horse Stallion

Getting on well with this one.  Just got to finish the back end and then add a background.  A happy day painting!

Peterborough Artists Open Studios

I've just enjoyed the second weekend of three in the Open Studios.  I've loved having lots of vistors to my studio and I've met some lovely people along the way.  Thanks to everyone who bought work and cards, and all those who stopped for a cup of tea and a chat.  I've had time to start a new commission while the studio was open and so far it looks okay.  I'm working in pastel pencils on pastelmat. 

This is 'Jazzy'.  He's a miniature horse stallion.
