"Reuben"

Yay! A finished piece, completed IN CLASS!! I thoroughly enjoyed doing this task, but it beats me why! I am not confident at all about doing portraits but I just plodded on. Watercolour washes with some stippling, using salt and paint and left to dry. Then a pencil sketch and pen on top, with highlights painted in watercolour.

Giraffe

Hare

Hare. Another finished piece, from the same session and finished at home. I was very happy with the way the paint mixed with this one, it's something I really want to work on. Again, finished with pen.

Brecon Beacons 1

Landscape and river. Clearly unfinished yet again, I spent far too long trying to get the hills right! I liked them in the end, and need to work on the river now.

Brecon Beacons 2

Landscape with tree and pool. Really liked this one. Again, not finished, but I enjoyed doing it. I was pleased with how the unfinished piece looked, but I know it needs finalising.

Shacks in the water. I enjoyed having a go at this, as we all did it at the same pace, following the tutor. Clearly 3 hours wasn't enough for me to finish the work, but I will do in future.

Venice unfinished

Buildings and water. This is very very pale at the moment and not finished. I intend to get back to my unfinished work as soon as possible.
