Yesterdays class "Summer Day"

The weather was horrible yesterday-pouring with rain, so it was nice to be doing a bright cheerful painting like Summer Day!
Kim was back for the second time,Carol and her dad Tony along with Julie were with me for the first time.
Julie had quite a journey to get to us from Hay On Wye.
Everyone was excited about doing this painting although Kim said she was actually more nervous this time than last time , as she didn't think she could paint another painting as good as her first one!She told us that when she took her first painting (Forest Pool) home her friends jaw actually dropped--she couldn't believe that Kim had painted it in less than 4 hours!
Kims fears were unfounded though-her painting turned out beautiful.
Carol and her dad Tony really enjoyed themselves--I was a bit worried to see that Carol had a white skirt and top on--if that had been me I would have been covered in paint-but with the help of one of my aprons she kept herself spotless.
Everyone kept saying throughout the class--"I cant belive Ive done this" The class went really quickly and we were finished before time.Everyone picked up using the knife very quickly and easily which was a suprise as it can be a bit tricky to use first time.
Tony is coming to next weeks class "Mystical Moon" which is now full.Tony and Carol have also booked for Birch Trees , and Kim for Serenity in Green.
The brush cleaning didnt take long as there were only 5 sets of brushes!
