The Waterfall Workshop Nov 5th

Many thanks to everyone who fitted in with the request to have an earlier start in the class....the family who were coming had to be somewhere else at 2pm so I said we would start at 9.30am so we could finish earlier......luckily everyone could make the arlier time!!  Sue decided to use the yellow ochre and reds for her painting and it worked really well.
Virginia's painting was very subtle and mystical...you would never believe it was only her 2 nd time painting to see her finished result..
I hope I have got the names and ages  of the boys right..,lost my list again! Anyway I think this is Benjamin age 9 nearly 10..... he and his brother have been once before with mum Alison--this time dad Tim joined them as well..both boys were very bold and not scared of the paint...big strong trees and his waterfall was just perfect...
Julia made a lovely job of her painting..she wants to join us next week and the week after at the workshops we are doing in Mid Wales...
Barnaby aged 11 years was very good at following instructions from me,,
Alison was a bag of nerves at times during class...but she thrived on it and created this beautiful picture...
Margarita really enjoyed painting on the black canvas....
Tim seemed to find his first go at painting quite easy..and was soon making decisions for himself about where things should be....he made a lovely job of his painting and I'm sure we will see him and the family again!
The Happy Artists!
well done everyone--stunning paintings....
Julie, Virginia,Margarita and Sue with their masterpieces
