Lots of people have requested that I do another online exhibition and so I have decided to do it now whilst I still have a few of the original paintings left that are in my ‘Watercolour Workshop ‘ book. They are mainly smallish pictures but one or two large pieces too. I shall send them without mounts or frames to make delivery easier and they can be sent to most places around the world. For some reason there is a glitch with Sweden. I’m sorry about that but do please email me if you are from Sweden and we will arrange something outside the usual system- it’s nothing personal I can assure you!
It’s too hot to paint this week with my watercolours drying as fast as they hit the paper and so I have really enjoyed having a blitz in my studio, clearing stuff out . After two years of working on books I feel that I am building up to start afresh quite soon. I know I am always saying that! However, I suppose it is in the nature of an artist to always want to look around at creative possibilities and explore options. As I write this it reminds me of the poem that I ended my book with called ‘Finding Me’. It was a bit of a cheek really, including one of my first poems in a published book but I thought back to when I did my first books on watercolour and really I was only just learning to paint myself! And so I decided that it was ok to include a first poem in this recent book too. You can find it in the separate post- ‘Finding me’.
‘Dragonfly’ is featured in ‘Ann Blockley’s Watercolour Workshop’ and is now for sale in the online exhibition.
