As winter gives way (slowly!) to the spring, we are all busy making and creating. Warm weather means little picnics at break time, and lots of bees, butterflies and plant life to draw. We are making the most of it before it gets too hot to go outside.

a great Wednesday afternoon class with graphic art being the focus. Capturing quick characteristics with line and vibrancy with gouache paint. Itcwas also the last afternoon class for lovely Maya who had been my student for 2 years...I will miss you darling, and have fun at high school!

last weeks class captured the movement of a birds wings with gesso and watercolour technique

Great job, class!! Can't beat a classic step by step to really learn good techniques....So proud of you x

Two exciting workshops undertaken at Amherst Library recently went well, I think! Learn to Draw and Introduction to Watercolours - I have to say the staff were absolutely amazing and so professional and the participants were fantastic - willing to give something new a go and made some beautiful work! Congrats City of Gosnells - you have a gem in that place - keep it going! Below is an image from a studio workshop I ran for Introduction to Watercolours.....so much fun

I recently had three pieces in an exhibition and thought I would share them here on the blog. The trees are watercolour on large boards which have then been waxed.
