Winter Wonderland Class


We had 2 people couldn't make it today which left us with just Bev, Gary and Elaine.
None of them had used a black canvas before and were surprised at how different it was to use than a white one.
The painting developed very quickly, from the clouds through to the snow-it seemed no time at all.
We used a wide variety of brushes and a knife to produce some lovely effects.
They all used the knife with ease to produce the tree and fence-it addedxlots of texture.

Elaine and Gary have been busy painting at home since their last class-they said there are pictures drying all over the house-on top of cupboards everywhere! It would seem they have the painting bug good and proper!
Gary and Elaine were going home to paint some canvas black and have another go--their children are joining in at home with them as well which is great.
Gary, Elaine and Bev all ended buying lots of brushes and paint at the end of the class--I have increased the range of brushes a lot and also have all the mediums needed including varnishes in stock.
I also have all the oil paints that we use in class as well.

It was a great class and the results as you can see were stunning.
