“Happy Pansies” – watercolour on paper, 9″x9″
Right up there with snowdrops and crocus, pansies say “spring” to me. At our house, we love to stock up on cheeky Icicle Pansies to bring some much needed colour and cheer to the garden.
In this workshop, we will work with both precision and looseness in a limited palette (or not, your choice!) to capture these happy springtime friends.

“Old Watering Can” – acrylic on canvas, 11″x14″
April showers bring May flowers. We hope. Let’s bring some of those beautiful blooms to the unpredictable weather of April.
Layered light and dark values will create our bouquet, to be accompanied by the tones needed to create the patina of a rusty old watering can.
In this workshop, we will work with both precision and looseness in a limited palette (or not, your choice!) to capture these happy springtime friends.

“Suffolk Sheep” – watercolour on paper, 8″x12″
Hanging out under the apple blossoms, some fluffy Suffolk Sheep are, I’m sure, waiting to see if we have any treats to share.
Using a simple primary palette, we will wash, scrape and charge (all watercolour techniques) our way to this cheery springtime scene.
