MONOTONE STUDY

Oops!! Another watercolour :-(  Never mind, for every watercolour on this oil-painting blog, I'll add another oil later, lol.

SKETCHBOOK PAINTING
This is a quick "Pen & Wash" sketch taken from (yes, you guessed it) my sketchbook. It's not an oil, but at least it means I'm still keeping a hand in one way or the other.

Our Own Art-Club!

Each Friday we go to the local Art-Club in Horwich. It's a thriving club with a broad range of people of all ages and skill-levels. Apart from the regular painting sessions, we have many professional artists visiting us to demonstrate their skills and to run workshops.

But sometimes, it's nice when just a few friends get together mid-week too, and so here we are in Simon's "studio", benefitting from the skill and experience of his father, Brian Waddington. It looks a bit cramped in there, but we were just huddled together to fit in the photo frame :-)



And you can drink beer in this club! :-)
