New Venture

I have been getting more and more into photography over the past year or so. I love experimenting with the different settings on the camera and getting some interesting effects.
I have mounted ready to frame some of my favorites in 3 different sizes.
They proved popular at Shobdon Food and Drink Festival. I will be printing some new scenes shortly and will add them to the website later. Take a look at whats there so far..Im really pleased with the results!

New Venues Coming Up

We are -weather permitting-going to be at 2 new venues doing demonstrations and showing off the paintings etc. The first will be on Wed 11th July at Herefordshire Diamond Day at the King George V Playing Field, Hereford 8.30am-4.30pm There will be community music and dance displays, Vintage village, arts and crafts and a high teashop.
Local foods, ciders and refreshments.Livestock displays and childrens play area.

Most importantly of all and the highlight of the day will be a visit from Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness the Duke Of Edinburgh....

Then we will be at The Hole In The Wall Festival at Hopton Court on Sunday 15th July where The Counterfeit Stones,T-Rextasy, Fred Zeppelin,Simple Minds, The Reggaelators plus more to follow!!

 Lots going on as well as music ..we will have our own new gazebo at both venues so should have plenty of room for demonstrating....lets hope the weather dries up before then..

We should be at Bromyard Gala this weekend but if the rain keeps on can see it being cancelled as the steam engines wont be able to move on the site--neither will our Bunty Van so keeping everything crossed it stops raining soon..
My dear friend Lin is working flat out to get enough of my cards done in time for all the shows bless her...they have sold like hotcakes as usual at all the shows/markets Ive done lately!

My friend Paula  has offered to man my  usual Ludlow market stall on the Wed 11th July, so I will be working flat out tomorrow to get enough on my popular minature paintings done to leave with her for then and so I have enough to take with me to the shows.

Mystical Moon Workshop June 30th

Vals first time with me..

Tracey lives round the corner from us and in fact is our 'paper girl!'  2 nd time painting for her,,no nerves this time!

Pauline was another first timer...

along with Malcom who both had gift vouchers...

Jo was painting her picture as a pressie for her father in law....

Irene has been loads of times now-she has a long way to come so she always books in the Travel Lodge overnight....she is quite an acomplished artist now....

Joanne was back for the 2nd time....lovely colours

my cousin Cheryl was over on a visit from the USA so it was lovely to see her again...

my Aunty Pat joined us as well....

Hazel was along for the first time with Ann....whose photo photo has dissapeared from my camera!!! GRRRR why does that keep happening? Its really annoying--every time I take a lot of photos with my camera some of them just vanish into thin air!!!

Tom was here as a birthday treat with mum Vikki---both had a birthday last Wednesday! Tom was very good--he blended the paint very well and followed my instructions to the letter...he loved the experience and says he has to come back again!

Vikki and Tom hard at work

busy people!

Vikki put in a request to do her painting like one of my other original paintings...I was happy for her to do so-as she has been 5 times before and she has a little more experience and would be able to control the brush enough to get a good tree. These 'bare' trees can be very hard to do well first time. She made a beautiful job of it!

Well done everyone--beautiful Mysical Moons!

Its lovely to see just how different all of the paintings turn out.

No two are the same--all as individual as you are !
