All the latest happenings at Learn Watercolour
The start of a new year . . .
Where does the time go - a new decade dawns. 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. Recently I've been busy arranging my first exhibition of the 'teenies' (which will presumably follow the noughties), and I've also been booking in some new workshops and courses. All the details are on my events page, but among other activities 2010 will feature courses at West Norfolk Arts Centre, Castle Rising, a weekend based in the local village of Ringstead, and a new course at Spalding, Lincolnshire. I'll be tutoring a number 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. I also 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. This Spring I will be holding another exhibition in The Stables, which is next to the Gin Trap Inn, in the village of Ringstead, West Norfolk. Opening on Tuesday 27th April, it will run until Bank Holiday Monday 3rd May, open every day from 10am - 4pm. It looks like quite a busy year to come, and I look forward to meeting many of you, somewhere along the artist 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!
