Creative Me workshop photos

Thank you to the lovely artists who shared their creative journeys with me today.

I'm amazed by your creations and impressed with your stamina.  I'm exhausted now, but somehow  finding the energy to finish the cake and have a glass of wine!


We start the day with a clean - erm, everything!

the blank canvases don't last long, within a few minutes the first layer is on and drying, and  we are looking  light heartedly  at colour theory & how not to make mud!

that's the way to do it!



already developing their voices - and yes that is a puppy!


and while we work... Bo has a nap!
 'Thank you for today Helen, I enjoyed learning new ways to apply and layer paint colour - the information about colour, use of the colour wheel and how to create contrast' CE

Loving Autumn

Autumn's arrived here in wild West Wales and it's beautiful. Clear crisp mornings on the beach with the pups, me wrapped in scarves and jumpers, then home to squeeze out the jazzy autumn colours onto my palette and begin!
Happy to be back home. There's no place like it.
