On Thursday I finished two watercolour paintings. They were of a swan and a puffin, and the swan is pictured above. I started them two weeks previously, but I had a break from painting the week before last because I went to the...

Above is a picture of the art project I've been working on. A guy called Chris in church had these pictures of God holding up the city of Lichfield, and one week he showed them to me and my friend Louise. She said I would be able...

Here is the finished painting now that I've re-done it. It's supposed to be impressionistic.
I managed to finish it today. So I started by mixing the sky colour, trying to get it more like the colour on the reference photo, and...

This is the other watercolour painting that I did on Thursday. I just did a quick sketch of the flowers first. Then I painted in the background with a few different shades of green, and added in a few leaves and stems. When that...

This is the second of my watercolour paintings for the London Art Course. This one was supposed to have more detail in it.
Again I did most of it last week, and just did a bit to it to finish it today.
Last week I started with...

Above is the first of my finished watercolour paintings. I'd already done most of it last week, but today I finished it.
I don't really think the sky is dark enough. The sky in my reference picture was darker than this.

Seeing as last week was the final week of art class at Wall Village Hall, today I started doing "at home art class" again.
Today I was doing some watercolour paintings for the London art course correspondence course. I did 2...

There was no art class today because in the UK it was polling day and they were using the hall as a polling station. I phoned up the taxi on Monday to cancel today's taxi, and I added a new date on the end (1st August) to make up...

Well, it's yesterday now because it's after midnight.
My taxi came for me at about 1:25pm today.
When I got to Wall Village Hall I went to the toilet and then made myself a cup of tea. I showed Tina, the tutor, a watercolour...

It was art class day on Thursday again. The taxi came just on time again. I got to the place, went to the toilet and got myself a cup of tea. Esther was there this week instead of Sue because Sue was on a training course. Esther...

It was art class day again today. My taxi arrived to pick me up dead on 1:30pm again. It was another different Asian chap today. When I got to the Wall Village Hall I gave the taxi driver £8 so he gave me 20p in change. But it was...

Here is the finished painting that I did today.
After I posted my previous post, I painted the tablecloth and then started on the apple tart itself. First I took off all the masking fluid.
I started with a thin layer of lemon...

So, my step-dad took his lunch upstairs so I could get to the dining room table sooner than I thought I would.
Today I'm doing a watercolour painting of Tarte aux Pommes (Apple tart to you!) My initial sketch was already done,...

I'm painting a kitty cat at the moment in watercolour.
Well, as you can see from the picture, I've done the background and the eyes so far. To my eyes the background doesn't look very good. It's not surprising, I'm not very...

The taxi was just on time to fetch me for art class yesterday.
I had a cup of tea and a biscuit before we started. The lady with the little dog came this week, but she won't be here next week because she's going on holiday...

My taxi was just on time to pick me up for art class this week. It was the minibus taxi again. I was the first one to arrive again and I immediately got my fan out to fan myself. The little doggy didn't come again this week. Maybe...

I went to art class again on Thursday. The taxi came just on time. It was one of those mini bus ones again but I'm getting used to getting in and out of them now.
It was very hot so I didn't bother having a cup of tea. The...

It was another day of painting today. I've started another 5 paintings but none of them are finished yet! I'm going to try and finish them tomorrow.
The first one is one of a ladybird hanging from a twig. I made a mess of the...
