We welcomed 9 artists to Treetops today for our Spring Flowers Workshop, our first painting was of some pretty primroses coming through the undergrowth.
Claire demonstrates in stages, after the initial faint drawing and placing of the flowers, a little bit of masking fluid and mixing of paints, the above photo shows the first wash.
After a rest away from the paintings as we let them dry, we moved into the Hall for a delicious lunch of kedgeree, slow roasted tomatoes and a watercress & mandarin salad, followed by a delicious gingerbread cake, poached pears and vanilla creme fraiche desert. And for some a much needed glass of wine!
After lunch, the artists embarked on a looser and freer crocus painting
Thanks everyone for coming, see you again
