Online watercolour class, October 3rd

I am pleased to announce that I am beginning an online watercolour class (via Zoom) on Saturdays beginning Saturday, October 3rd from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Each class will consist of 4 sessions for a total cost of $140.00 (35$ per session). The sessions will be held on October 3, October 10, October 17, and October 24. We will begin with a demonstration, followed by time to work with personalized support, and a final critique.

I will be guided by what the attending class would like to focus on, but, because it is fall, we will begin with the warm and glorious colours of autumn. Please contact me if you are interested in registering for this class. You will need to provide your name, email, phone number, and prior art experience.

Below is a small painting, completed this past summer, of a rose.

Step 1 - Light wash in the background.

Step 2- Begin initial washes on the rose. More detail with the leaves in the background.

Completed painting entitled “Love, it is a rose” sung by Bette Midler. The lyrics seem to resonate with our challenging times.

“Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows

Lies the seed, that with the sun’s love in the spring becomes the rose.”

Welcome to this first blog post!

We find ourselves in unusual times. As artists we need to stay visible and connected to our community. This will be my way to stay connected to you.
