Todays Class--Serenity in various colours!


































Today was a first for me--I had 9 students in class for the first time! They came from far and wide to join me--a real mixed bunch we had too!
Paul who has been twice before bought along his neighbour Hazel to paint her very first painting at the grand age of 83-she was very nervous when she came-but when I told her that she was one of 6 who had never done it before she felt happier!
Rhada came from Birmingham by train-setting off just after 7am this morning-Bill picked her up from the station and dropped her off again after class with her painting safely boxed up so it couldn't get smudged!
Kim was here to do her 3 rd painting and Tony his 4th
then we had sisters Meryl and Nichola along with their daughters Charlotte and Naomi who came from Tenbury and Monmouth!
The students had a big decision to make-what colours to use and which version of Serenity did they do?
One version has a snowy path and lots of bushes and the other a bigger fence and long grasses!
It was lovely to see the paintings develop very quickly as always--no-one had any problems with it really only deciding if to put any more trees in or not!
Rhada has asked if I can get her some bigger canvas for her next classes as she would like bigger paintings!
