All the latest happenings at Learn Watercolour
Halfway through the year . . .
Where does the time go!. However for an artist, the passing of the seasons presents new opportunities for subjects to paint, and new people to introduce to the pleasures of landscape painting. I recently had my second exhibition at The Stables, Ringstead and again it was a successful one. Thanks to all who made it along, it's great to meet old friends and new ones too, and I look forward to seeing you again in the future. My next exhibition is likely to be toward the end of this year, but I'll post full details here as soon as it's confirmed. Meanwhile, my teaching workshops, demonstrations and courses continue, with the last few weeks being exceptionally busy. All the details of events still to come are on my events page, but among other activities there will be more beginners and improvers weekly courses at West Norfolk Arts Centre, Castle Rising, a weekend based in the historic old town area of King's Lynn, and two one-day workshops at Spalding, Lincolnshire. I'll also be tutoring plenty of workshops and demonstrations for various art groups and societies, so if you would like me to visit your own group you can find more information here. Although I do a lot of teaching, I still love to paint, and I welcome commissions for all landscape based subjects. So if there is a scene that is special to you, or someone you know, do discuss it with me. It doesn’t have to be Norfolk! I have painted views of the UK, Europe, and across the globe. Speaking of which, time to get my brushes out! Enjoy art in all its forms, and I look forward to meeting many of you, somewhere along the artist's trail. Outdoor sketching! At most of my weekend workshops we manage to spend at least some time working outside directly from nature. However, it's not always easy, as this cartoon from Jane Ford shows. Jane was a participant on the Springtime Sketchbook workshop in April 2008, when we had to contend with some rather windy and chilly conditions, which she captured perfectly. Thanks Jane!
