| We only had 4 in for the Birches yesterday, 5 of the people booked in for last weeks cancelled workshop couldn't make it this week....Christina did mange to get here though! She chose the large size 40in x 12in canvas.....it takes a lot of trees to cover that one! |
 |
| Lesley made it from Hereford...she also opted for the large canvas...and chose the soft sage green and cream combination.. |
 |
| We met Sandra at the Tenbury Apple Fest last year--one of the few shows that went ahead in the awful weather we had...Ive noticed that the number of bookings is down on previous years because we didn't do as many shows as normal....anyway although Sandra was quite nervous to start with she soon settled down to it and the nerves soon went! She chose to use the silver paint for the birch trees...it catches the light beautifully.. |
 |
| We know Daniels Mum as she works on the same market as us..Daniel chose the 12in x 24in canvas and the shades of browns that would match his bedroom. He followed my instructions very well and he really enjoyed himself.. |
 |
| adding the detail.. |
 |
| Lesley soon had the hang of doing the trees... |
 |
| Daniel adding his large birch trees.. |
 |
| nearly finished Christina! |
 |
| Sandra found her confidence very early on , deciding that she wanted to add a large black tree in the foreground...and she made a brilliant job of it! |
 |
| Bill had to carry on with each stage of my painting while I supervised the students--he is a dad hand at Birches now! |
 |
| The end results.... |
 |
| Loved Christina's picture.... |
 |
| Daniel 's masterpiece.. |
 |
| Sandra's beautiful painting.. |
 |
| I love the green and creams of Lesley's painting....she made a cracking job of it! |
 |
| It was lovely to have just a few brushes to clean when we got home--made a refreshing change to be honest! As soon as that was done we sat down to relax with a Tia Maria and Baileys over ice--the perfect end to the perfect day! |
