What a great week back in my studio \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0On Wednesday my weekly Art Clubs returned and it was so good to see most of my regular ladies and hear about their Summer breaks whilst painting wooden wine bottles…a fun 2 week project layering with translucent paints and embossing powders.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I held a Decorated Glass class with yet more beautiful finished pieces. It was lovely to welcome Fran and Jenny to my studio who had travelled from Shropshire and Ross on Wye to have some arty fun! \u00a0Everyone was thrilled with what they achieved which obviously makes me happy and I look forward to seeing photos of future glass pieces they all produce at home \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Tonight I am excited about starting my own project on canvas…a bit of mixed media with a rose….inspired by something I saw whilst on holiday in Greece earlier this year. \u00a0I have been dying to create something new but with a busy summer break in our motorhome I haven’t had the chance ’til now…..<\/p>\n

If you’re coming to a workshop in the near future I look forward to seeing you….if you haven’t booked one yet, why not go to my\u00a0workshops<\/a>\u00a0page and see if something inspires you to get arty! \u00a0Most of my classes are suitable for all levels of artistic ability from those that haven’t picked up a brush since school to others that love to dabble and maybe want to try something new or build on skills already learnt….either way I would love to welcome you to my studio and share my passion for art \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Whatever you’re doing….enjoy!<\/p>\n
