Emerald Woods Workshop Feb 2d

Emerald Woods is an interesting one to do--you learn to use acrylic and oils.. here you can see John starting the background..

Sara came to class with her mum, they came to paint Serenity and enjoyed it so much they came back!

Dave was painting with me for the first time..he had never used a sponge to paint with before! None of the others had either come to think of it!


We had some lovely interesting trees, its amazing how quickly people find their confidence and the trees improve with each one they paint!


Margaret stepping back to see what to do next--its looking great!

Sara's trees are taking shape...

The oil wash takes everyone by surprise and this is where you can have a lot of fun with colour...

Dave's adding blues and greens to his painting..


you can make the paintings as subtle or bright as you like...
The blue has always been one of my favourite colours---

lovely results everyone!
