  • Watercolour painting anyone?

    Anybody else enjoy painting? I paint in watercolours and have also used, oil/acrylics etc. Anyone want to share their work?

    It's something I quite enjoy Mrs C but I do it in fits and starts and haven't wet my brush (true, true, very true!) for a while!

    I have an easel at home and one in my allotment hut with the idea of doing a bit of outdoor painting at the allotment..........just never seem to get the time. I will though, make a concerted effort this year.

    And NO you ain't seeing any of my work!

        Used to do alot of art - screen printing - oils - pastels - etc etc. Now stick to photos. Love darkroom stuff though.

          I teach Art (painting, drawing, printmaking, jewelery, etc) but I don't seem to do much myself anymore (unless you count the numerous bits of each students project, a line here.. a bit of paint there.. does it all add up?).

              I join photography courses just for the fun of using a darkroom. Sad innit??

                I love it and I did a 10 week course in the Autumn. Sadly I'm still rubbish!

                  I have done painting (mostly oils, a bit of watercolour) but nothing of mine is good enough to share. I also do a bit of wood carving when I have the space to make a mess in (not often). Only simple stuff, and again, not fit to show around.

                    Wimps lol, lets have a look!!!!! Here's one of mine, 'Wind in the Willows' watercolour. Sorry, but camera is not very good, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

                      Lovely Mrs C. Thanks for sharing it. I like that style.
                      I only dabble a bit but I might put something on tomorrow.
                      Come on the rest of you. You must have something you could share.

                        I have a degree in art & design (doesn't mean I'm any good though).
                        I take a lot of macro photos of flowers, with a view to one day painting them up on canvas.

                        Perhaps I should enroll on a course just to free up some time to get back into it - I do like fiddling with paint and pencils. Sorry these pix are really small:

                            They're fab two Sheds, lovely. I used to paint (badly), lived in the Art class at school! I absolutely loved clay modelling too - I think I'm a frustrated Sculptor at heart LOL. Line drawing was my first love (which, for someone with no patience always struck me as weird), but sadly life, and other hobbies get in the way, and I haven't picked up a pencil in anger for years!

                            Keep up the good work!

                              Blimey! Nice work TS. You really should think about putting aside some time to pursue it properly - you have some talent.

                              I try to paint every now and again, but I don't think I have any natural flair for it whatsoever. I'm ok at sketching things out but it sort of ends there.
