We had a lovely day today-The roads were awful-snow and black ice everywhere so was quite surprised the ladies made it to class at all!
Right from the start the paintings were very different-everyone interpreted the way I did the sky and everything else very differently-we had some amazing skies right from the word go.
Claire came for the first time today came along with her mum Cynthia who has been twice before.
Tamara had her class bought her from her hubby for Christmas-and she said it was the best Christmas pressie she had ever had! At the end of class she said she was flabbergasted at her result. She had been looking at the previous students results on my website and had thought she would never be able to achieve the same results!
Celia and Sue who had both been to class together once before had told her she would be delighted with her end results and not to be worried! And they were right of course!
14 year old Sara was back to do her 5th painting. she is joining us again to paint Mellow Moods and Mystical Moon-she will be getting her artist brooch next time .she once again had the prize for the messiest palette--she ended up using mine halfway through! Its an artwork on its own!
Suzanne found the knife work a bit harder than the brushes-being left handed doesn't help there though-but as soon as she found the right pressure to put on it , the waves came along lovely.
It was amazing to see just how quickly the painting came together-with everyone stepping back and admiring each others work as we went along. It never fails to suprise everyone just how the painting comes along so quickly.
We are seeing Celia and Sue again next week for the Birch tree class and Suzanne is coming to paint Yesterday.
The small amount of paint needed to create the picture always suprises everyone-and its lovely at the end of the painting to use a bit more paint than previous to do the poppies!
The ladies all produced some gorgeous textured poppies-they really set off the seascapes-I was trying out some new liner brushes for the grasses-and they worked great-they will be available shortly off my website.
Im really looking forward to seeing everyone again-and we are sending best wishes and hugs to Claire for the future and hope she gets her op soon and all goes well xx
