I am painting the sky and plan to add some more details including a little colour and more. I find blues and greens some of the hardest colours to work out or to get just right. The smaller painting was for a little girl so I wanted some joy in the blue colour. The rectangular one is the larger piece. I had already gone a little too deep with the blue sky which I have rectified below. It’s not as dark as it looks here. I have more to do on it before I would say it is finished.

The still-life painting is by Jan. Jan comes by for workshops with me and paints from scratch or reworks paintings that she had shelved for a long time. The gorgeous painting below was an old one that now has a new lease of life.

I have an art workshop coming up on Saturday 17th of February 10.00am to 12.30pm. Everything will be supplied for you to make a freestanding character or wall art character or if you would prefer, to make a block assemblage instead. It is a very small class so can only take one or two people for this one. We will discuss selection of images from books, what works and what does not. We will talk about the application of glue and how to hang your work and even more importantly how to edit your work. I will supply you with books for images, paper, card, different types of glue and how to select and use the most appropriate one. We will discuss balance. So all in all you will be getting a workshop in making collage that will be extended in a slightly more sculptural way. Contact me on the contact page via email annewarrenart@gmail.com.
