Some Pics from my classes

Above we have 3 of the students from 17th June, its great how everyones painting turns out different,Barbra on the right of the picture has entered her painting into exhibition at The Secret Hills at Craven Arms and it was lovely to see a picture of it in the local paper last week-- well done Barbra.
Above we have Robbie with his version of Birch Tree Wood that he painted on Oct 10th, what a great spooky looking wood , again some detail has been added in coloured encaustic wax as is a trademark feature of my 'almost monochrome 'paintings. Robbie has painted his picture on a deep edge box canvas which is quite a lot bigger than normal--its hard to tell as Robbie must be all of 7ft 6ins tall!!!
Here are Renatta and her mum Mandy at the 'Early Morning'
class earlier in the year 7th Oct. Its the 3 rd time they have been to a class and as Renatta is just 10 years old I think she has done very well.
As you can see Mandy left her monchrome painting as it was , just adding some foxgloves and dragonflies with the encaustic wax,Renatta covered hers in a light oil wash for a slightly different look.
