Today, I finally finished Hot Chips Are Mine! Since the lockdown has started I could take advantage of the unexpected time available in my studio to paint. Still, I miss teaching and therefore thought I might share how I created this painting. I know it’s a watercolour painting but most of the principles apply to oil and acrylic painting as well:
Here are some photos of our Watercolour Journaling Class at Broadgreen Historic House and Isel House in Stoke, Nelson. We focused on perspective and figures. I loved seeing everybody's work, it's gorgeous! Watercolour Journaling is a way of painting little keepsakes for yourself. It is about enjoying the moment painting, enjoying the location and creating memories.
I love painting at Broadgreen Historic House, Stoke/Nelson. It offers beautiful historic architecture, enchanted gardens and lots and lots of roses once they are in bloom. Here are some photos.
The old buildings and cars/trucks at Founders Park are such characters. Again and again they draw me back and I have to paint them. I hope they last forever. The painting is available from my website here
