REVIEWS
I had a lovely time, learning how to sketch and paint a complicated tree in watercolour. The tutor had great tips along the way, and I left feeling more confident incorporating more difficult subjects into my landscapes.

Title or Location: watercolour at Omaha Beach
This was a day of the beginning of a new life, with my new wee camper (A converted Vellfire), and my newly adopted dog. It was pouring with rain, so we went for a walk at Omaha Beach where I took some drizzly photos with my phone. Back at the camper van, with a large, hot takeaway cuppacino and treats for my dog, we had a picnic in the van, and I painted this with my watercolours. I partly copied it from the photo without my glasses on, so that I could capture the drizzlyness of the day. I

Title or Location: The photo which is referenced in this watercolor was taken at Aoraki/ Mt Cook National Park by Kavan Chay which made the cut for the 2024 Milky Way Photographer of the Year international competition.
I have always loved watching the milky way, its the brightest out at sea. I have never been able to capture it with a camera. I had this idea in my head about painting a red house on a lonely hill with the milky way above it showing how small we are compared to the universe. Then I came across this shot taken out at Aoraki/ Mt Cook National Park by Kavan Chay and it was like the universe had heard me and given me a reference photo. the watercolor looks nothing like the original photo but I love

My friend asked me to paint something special for her to hang in her newly built home. She chose a photo of the beach she grew up on. It means a lot to her as she is really missing friends and family since she moved away.

I always take photos of subjects to inspire me to paint everytime I do my early morning walk in our place. Then, I had to find time to translate into painting.

Title or Location: Gorlston Upon Sea, England
The original was taken by my friend just as a storm came in while she stood on the beach at Gorlston Upon Sea. She loved the mood of the last light on the sand before the dark clouds blotted them out. And I was drawn to that too.

Title or Location: Scottsdale, AZ
The carnation is one of two flowers for January... The inspiration for my painting of a red and pink carnation came from the emotions these flowers represent. The bold red symbolizes love and admiration, while the soft pink brings to mind gratitude and warmth. I loved how these two colors complement each other, creating a mix of strong and gentle feelings. As I painted, I focused on the delicate layers of the petals and how the colors blended, trying to capture both the beauty and the emotion th

Title or Location: White Winter
A memory of winter 1963. As a child the snowfall that year was magical. The pond nearby was frozen and the trees laden with clumps of snow. The challenge in painting this in watercolours was to leave white and create the snow with the shadows.
