| I love teaching this workshop--its so much fun exploring the different mediums and colours..you can see the texture on the canvas here..it takes a lot of drying but is worth the effort! |
 |
| Karen bought along a sample of her new wallpaper so she could match the colour up--I knew I had just the colour for her..and sure enough it was a perfect match! |
 |
| Jenny used shades of browns and creams and it worked lovely...to be honest it seems to work in any colour combination you like.. |
 |
| Doreen chose the beautiful bright poppy red.. |
 |
| And I love the blues that Bev chose...she is just making the centre a shade darker here! |
 |
| Wendy seemed to find it easy to get a more random shape to the poppy centre,its one thing that a lot of students can find hard when painting--its so easy to make everything symmetrical ! |
 |
| Joy used blues with a touch of purple-a lovely combination.. |
 |
| Margaret choice of colour worked well too--a beautiful cerise pink... |
 |
| Nicola chose the popular Teal /turquoise colour--i love it-its one of my favourite colours of all time! |
 |
| Virginia used the teal but added a touch of blue -- |
 |
| Lisa was really nervous as it was a first time for her, but the nerves soon went once she started painting! |
 |
| Steph was with me for the 2nd time-and of course this one was completely different to do from her first one which was Serenity and done in oils... |
 |
| The painting really comes to life when the melted wax is added and we had some lovely combinations of colours done...some just black and silver, some added a touch of gold and Jenny added a few browns to hers a swell to compliment her colours..I even managed to find a purple one to match Karen's so she was a happy bunny too! |
 |
| Looking good Jenny! |
 |
| Wendy adding the finishing touches.. |
 |
| Silver paint for the stamens is last.. |
 |
| The paintings are all very dramatic and vibrant.. |
 |
| And Doreen's looks just beautiful,,, |
 |
| Karen's centre was a little larger than some of the others but it goes to show there is no right or wrong with this subject.... |
 |
| How lovely to look down the row of paintings as they were being created and see the wonderful colours! |
 |
| Beautiful results ladies! |
 |
| The photos never do these paintings justice!! |
 |
| WOW! |
