I’ve just completed another course with Roxanne Evans Stout, entitled A Book of Trees and again it was such fun to do. It is the sort of book that you can keep adding to and I am sure there will be more words.
A little Art Journal
I recently discovered the work of France Papillon who does the most amazing journal pages. This is the result of a little online course I followed. It is four sheets of A4 watercolour paper, the backgrounds were done first then the pages folded and sewn together using a simple pamphlet technique. I then continued to work into them.
A Nature Journal
I loved the course I did with Roxanne Evans Stout which resulted in my Four Seasons book, so have done another course with her to produce a Nature Journal.
Four seasons part 2
I finally completed the three remaining large compositions for my four seasons project. They are all 41 x 31 cms – the size of the khadi paper I used as the base layer. Once finished, they were mounted on white card.
Sketchbook workshop
More than a year ago I did a workshop with Cas Holmes at West Dean, on using sketchbooks as a starting point for further work. I was not well at the time and felt I hadn’t produced anything worthwhile, but when I came to look at the work again, I felt there was a lot more there that could inspire me further. Here are just a few of the pages.
