Impressions Expressions - a new pop-up exhibition *this weekend* 🤩 Saturday and Sunday I'm delighted to be displaying a selection on my artwork at a new community arts venue - Prades Créatif. This is a joint exhibition with a fabulous Franco-American artist and sculptor who lives just around the corner from me - our work is extremely different but we share so many creative values!
If you are local to me I hope you'll be able to come along - free admission 12h00-17h00 - 30 Grand Rue, Prades-sur-Vernazobre - refreshments available

Watercolour sketching on location certainly has its challenges! I was so looking forward to sketching at Château de Sériège for #uskweek2024, but .... it started to rain ... a lot!! After an hour or so there was barely any colour left on my paper it had all been washed away... 😬
However all was not lost, the lovely local café was open so it was a fun sketch over coffee instead. My Château sketch may have almost disappeared but it was still a wonderful morning 😊

International Urban Sketchers Week starts today! An annual event 1-7 May to celebrate drawing on location, being part of a community, seeing and experiencing the world from a unique and perhaps new perspective.
For our local meet-up this morning we had a beautiful location, but also and unfortunately as it turned out, non-stop and VERY heavy rain!!! Even so, some of us still showed up and made memories in our sketchbooks (even if very quickly and from inside the car!) 🤣

Now that this painting has been gifted I can share the photo here 😊 After spending so many hours looking at pictures of this lovely little chap I feel I almost know him! 🐾 It is such an honour to be commissioned to paint someone or somewhere special, but it is even more rewarding and heartwarming to learn that my artwork has touched someone’s life and made their Christmas extra special ♥️

In France it’s a public holiday today and a day of quiet remembrance. This watercolour is the demo piece from my Tuesday Zoom workshop this week - ‘Lest We Forget’.

I was recently contacted by a writer for ‘La Dépêche’ who was compiling an article listing art courses and workshops available across this region of France. A few phone calls later and we found ourselves chatting by the Canal du Midi not far from where I live. I explained a little more about the workshop programme but also my role as an Urban Sketchers volunteer. Thank you Conny for including me in this lovely article 😊

I'm super excited to be participating in this event this weekend 🤩 It looks all set to be an action-packed weekend of sketching and socialising whilst discovering the intercultural city of Strasbourg. I'll also be giving a workshop for Urban Sketchers on Sunday morning! Not only that, but I will finally meet the other members of the @urbansketchers Executive Board in-real-life. We've shared hours and hours of time together in Zoom meetings so it will be wonderful to finally meet in person! 🤗 All the event details are on the webpage https://france.urbansketchers.org/2023/07/rencontre-avec-le-conseil.html Watch this space...!

My latest painting of a very special home has just been hand delivered 😊 Having worked from photo reference it was a real treat for me to see this beautiful house in person 🤩.
I have one commission slot remaining for 2023 - please send me a message if there is a special subject you have in mind I’d be delighted to discuss the options with you!

Phew! Here's my desk after teaching a live online workshop this evening hosted by @shopkeeparty. 'The mission' was to simplify this complex scene of beautiful Roquebrun overlooking the river Orb. Not so easy within a short timescale but I was joined by some wonderful artists and the results I've seen so far are awesome 🤩 Huge thanks to everyone who painted along and registered for the workshop - and John of course for hosting!! Really looking forward to seeing more of the finished sketches on the Facebook post 😊

Lots of walking, talking and most of all sketching whilst discovering the pink city of Toulouse - just over half way through my lovely @artwayltd handmade sketchbook 👍
Feeling a bit frazzled with the heat so heading to a garden and some quieter locations tomorrow …

One fun final storming sketch together to capture the atmosphere of the busy whizzy Place de la Bastille! Overlooked by the gilded Genie de la Liberté we said some au revoirs and our wonderful adventure started coming to a close 😔 So many special memories and friendships created and sketchbook pages still to be shared - we are all going home with buckets of inspiration not to mention the hundreds of photos 😂😍
I feel so lucky and grateful that this fantastic group of people came to sketch in Paris with me 🙏💛🇫🇷

A Monday morning of quiet and calm sketching statues beneath the trees alongside a former King 😉 … and then a visit to the home of Mr Hugo himself… building ourselves up to the next and final sketch of the trip! 😊😢👩‍🎨

And …. Relax! 😎 A sunny Sunday in Paris and the Louvre gardens are filled with people sitting back and taking it easy (which is great for us sketchers!)
Walking back across the Seine is an idyllic backdrop to end the day 😊

The sun’s out in Paris so we’re painting the town red - or a couple of buildings at least! 😉
Fabulous start to the afternoon sketching by the Seine 😍

Early morning in Montmartre - a quiet time for a coffee and sketching in a place where art is literally all that you see at every street corner! What a great start to the day! 😍☕️
