Lavender Lake Workshop May 19th

Ali came back for the 2nd time and bought along a friend Dawn...unfortunately some of my photos have not come out again...and I have none of Dawn except on the final lineup..I'm going to start taking my old camera to class I think in future--..everyone loved working on a black canvas...its great fun as we cant see the colour we put on the canvas until we start adding the white paint to the canvas..great fun!
Sally---Bless her--came for her 3rd workshop and bought along her friend Sheila....as it was Bills birthday the day before and she had seen it on Facebook-she bought him a lovely cake and card ....very kind of her..
Sally was one of the most nervous students I had ever seen when she came to the first class...to have watched her confidence grow like it has is quite brilliant! She makes lots of wise decisions for herself during the workshop ...
Helen was treated for her birthday by her friend and our 'paper lady' Tracey--both newbies and both convinced they couldn't paint.....they loved it and both created wonderful atmospheric paintings..
Tracey loved using the bashing and tickling brushes....her clouds had great shape very quickly....you would never have known it was her first time.
Marguritta is a little star bless her--she has also grown in confidence with each workshop...
Elaine drove from llanidloes for the workshop and received her artist brooch from me for attending 6 workshops
Sheila has done watercolours for 7 years but this was a first for her using oils....
Sue is a great friend as well as a student--one of the lovely things about the workshops is how many wonderful folk we meet and end up being  close friends with....
wow ladies--what lovely results.....
Marguritta, Jenny,Elaine,Ali and Dawn with their masterpieces..
Tracey,Helen,Sue,Sally and Sheila with their masterpieces....looking forward to seeing them all again!
