I like classic pen and watercolour wash sketching, enjoy grand gestures with charcoal or hard pastel and don't mind flinging acrylic about! I quite commonly take a small sketchbook and pen to the hills.<br /><br />rb: Your photos show you have a good eye - and observation is key, so you're on your way! As for freeing up, my tutor is Frances Winder. She runs courses all the time (she is Lakes based) and she is wonderful at getting you to do things you'd never imagine you could do! She runs a course called 'Art for the Terrified' which tells you everything! Mrs HF did it and had a whale of a time.Hayfellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15615050437398204759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4537683470147293779.post-46863785966064529932011-05-01T08:14:46.943+01:002011-05-01T08:14:46.943+01:00Hi HF.

So lovely to see the fine fruits of your artistic trip and thank you for sharing. <br /><br />You so clearly have artistic talents and a great eye for composition - I have always been drawn (hee hee) to the visual arts but as a young person I could never seem to 'free myself' in the way my tutors suggested in my painting. I am rather taken by all three but think your palm tree is rather clever. <br /><br />Perhaps we can we see some more of these visual treats in the coming months? <br /><br />Happy running and painting in the sun :)RB.Runningbearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16736420417882057456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4537683470147293779.post-53431323848529464132011-04-26T13:56:34.294+01:002011-04-26T13:56:34.294+01:00i particularly like the abstract/building-scape on...i particularly like the abstract/building-scape one. can totally appreciate the difficulties in producing something that appears to be very simple. what medium to you prefer? and do you every take your pencils to the hills? <br />thanks for sharing :)katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181895420538192368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4537683470147293779.post-1741345666917710992011-04-26T05:48:31.900+01:002011-04-26T05:48:31.900+01:00a great and growing talent hf. particularly like y...a great and growing talent hf. particularly like your take in the last one..very lateral.ultra colliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11255286025113300247noreply@blogger.com
