25.01.2022 Another weekend, another tulip! #watercolour #watercolor #watercolourtulip #purpletulip #botanicalart #botanicalwatercolour #botanicalwatercolor #canberraartist

25.01.2022 Attention arty friends! This is a bit of a long shot but I have a position on a contemporary watercolour workshop with the amazing Stefan Gevers from 20-24 January near Horsham, Victoria that I can no longer attend. I am absolutely gutted to be missing out, Stefan is not just an amazingly talented artist but also a fantastic teacher. If you are interested in attending, please PM me and I will organise to have the ticket transferred into your name. Cost $1300 including accom...modation and meals. Link to workshop details: https://www.grampianarts.com.au/summer-brushes-stefan-gever

23.01.2022 The finished product - scroll down to see the evolution of my little tulip. Thank you so much to Tanya Hoolihan and NatureArt Lab - Art Classes in Canberra for a wonderful weekend. I had a ball, met lots of lovely arty ladies and learned loads. But most importantly, I think I got my mojo back! #watercolour #watercolor #botanicalart #botanicalwatercolour #botanicalwatercolor #tulip #watercolourtulip #purpletulip #art #canberraart #canberraartist #painting #neefbrushes #winsorandnewton #ineedtoworkonmyleaves #supportlocalart #supportlocalartists

20.01.2022 Finally got around to finishing my orchid - I began this at a fabulous white flower watercolour workshop with the lovely Jessie Rose Ford, Artist and The WIRED Lab at the Darbalara - The Coach House in #Gundagai on a hot day in February. A white flower is probably one of the most challenging subjects I’ve attempted to paint and I’m really keen to give this another go - being much more careful with my tones and grey colour mixes. It’s long overdue, but thanks to the fabulous ladies who organised and attended this fantastic workshop! #watercolourorchids #watercolourorchid #watercolour #watercolor #whiteorchid #whitephalaenopsis #botanicalart #whiteflower #whiteflowerart #whiteflowerwatercolour #challenge #paintingwhiteflowers #paintingwhiteflowersishard #canberraartist

07.01.2022 After quite a long painting hiatus, I think I’ve found my mojo again painting this gorgeous purple tulip at a workshop with the lovely and incredibly talented Tanya Hoolihan at NatureArt Lab - Art Classes in Canberra.

Looking forward to tomorrow! #tulip #tulips #purpletulip #watercolour #watercolor #botanicalwatercolor #botanicalwatercolour #botanicalart #sciencemeetsart #artmeetsscience #workinprogress #natureart #natureartlab #naturalhistoryart #watercolourtulip
