What a delight to capture beautiful Samoens, painting this brought many happy memories of time spent in this special part of the Haute Savoie.

Inspired art courses


 Buttermere Valley from Haystacks

Painted in Watercolour 


Fleetwith Pike Buttermere

Painted in Watercolour

Back to Basics, there is nothing wrong with a bit of practice time or trying out different techniques.

I often tell my online students, have a play on a smaller piece of paper, 5 x 7 inches is a great size and if they work out well, they make great personal cards.

Here are two that I painted this weekend, I like them both , but particularly the top painting from Fleetwith pike looking down the Buttermere valley.

I quite fancy having a go on a larger scale, adding the heather and rocks at the end really pulled it together.

I find painting a great release from this mad world, and can loose myself for a few hours. 
Quite often at the end of the session, I usually feel inspired and motivated once again.

If you're feeling the need of a bit of motivation and inspiration over the next few months, why not take up the online watercolor course.

From £55 

If you fancy learning some English watercolour skills  here's a link to more infomation

or just drop me a email if you would like to discuss the course.

Happy painting and lets keep inspired this Autumn.
