Art Tutorial

[Daisy]

As I mentioned elsewhere DIL2 and I enjoyed a day splashing paint around under the guidance of a lovely tutor. We had great fun, and although mine isn'e yet finished here is the "masterpiece" (ahem!) after my day's work.

[WeeGranny]

Wow, fantastic Daisy!!

[Plantaholic]

I love it Daisy, I bet you were tired.

[Nanto2girls]

Daisy, the painting shows how talented you are. Well done.

[WeeGranny]

Daisy, meant to ask what paints did you use?

Daisy, meant to ask what paints did you use?

WeeGranny - I used acrylics. I really like them, but my DIL prefers oils. She's just got some water-soluble oils but hasn't tried them yet. What do you generally use?

Plant - I certainly was tired - I ached all over from standing, and just concentrating for that length of time!

Nanto - thank you. You're very kind, but I look at other people's work and think "I wish I could do that!"

Oma - I have to say, nobody got wet feet!!!

I've dabbled with this picture a bit more, and the temptation is to keep dabbling, but I've decided it's done - finished or not!

Very dramatic Daisy! Well done. Are you going to hang it somewhere?

I'm hoping to find a class when I move, because I do miss having someone to guide me! My last work was in watercolour, but I really like pastels , don't mind chalk or oil.
I have to admit I'm not keen on acrylics, I've tried oils which I enjoyed, but they take so long to dry!!

It's so good Daisy.

I hope you find a class when you move WG.

WeeGranny, you're very kind. DS1 has offered to frame it for me, which is embarrassing because I'll have to stick it on a wall somewhere.

My DIL2 prefers oils, but like you, hates waiting for them to dry. She's just bought some water-soluble oils (not sure if that's the correct term) and she hopes they will dry quicker, and they don't have the same smell as ordinary oils. I do hope you find an art group when you've moved.

Gem - you're very kind. x
