Places Going Fast....

I must admit that I didn't think the new abstract painting subject "Around The Twist" Ive set for Sept 28th would be so popular!  Its already half full!   It will be great fun to do--Ive really enjoyed painting the pictures in the series,and it will give everyone the freedom to have have fun with colour and shape.

another example of Around The Twist...

Another subject I don't teach very often is "Squirrels Eye View" this is the latest version Ive painted ready for the Ludlow Art Society exhibition later this month....its a fun one to do--and we have had great results previously with it....there is a 'springtime ' colour one as well in beautiful greens and yellows. This is being painted on 8th June...its in acrylic on a 24in x 24in canvas..cost of this workshop is £45

Due to popular demand I have set yet another date for The Poppy--this will be the last workshop of 2013 on Sat Dec 14th...I have 5 people booked in already, so looks like it will be another busy one...there will be a choice of colour as usual..its a lovely one to do--you will learn to use lots of different techniques and mediums..cost of this workshop is £47

Another popular colour in the Big Poppy workshop...I love the turquoise version!

After every workshop -oils or acrylics- I offer the left -over paint to anyone who wants to take it home, otherwise it gets thrown away  :-( .  Jenny took home some left over oils and created this beautiful painting using them,and it was lovely for everyone in class to see what can be done on their own with a little confidence! I'm sure she has encouraged some of the others to have a go at home!

New Subjects

I have set a date to paint something a little different to the usual type of thing I teach after chatting with Silvie who came to the workshop on Saturday!   She works at Teme Leisure where I have my exhibition at the moment--she said all the younger members of staff loved the examples of the abstracts I had hung there and would love to have a go at something like it!     Dawn who was in class said she would book in--which she has already, and so on  Sat Sept 28th we will be painting "Around The Twist" It will be great fun--using colours and some imagination using oils on a chunky black canvas.20in x 16in or 16in x 20in----- I'm sure we will have some lovely vibrant results.

Lots of options on what to do...these are just 2 examples! You can book on the website www.paintingmyway.co.uk
