Watercolour workshop in Australia!

AUSTRALIA WORKSHOPS OCTOBER 2013 - I am excited to share the flyer for my upcoming workshops in Australia! I am looking forward to seeing you down under!

Latest watercolour painting

This is a recently finished landscape. I do not do many landscapes as I am not the best painter of buildings! However, I was recently challenged to paint some landscapes and I also posted a small landscape painting I did a couple of years ago which received some favourable feedback from my followers on facebook . So, I decided to come out of my comfort zone (florals/abstract) and have a go at some little landscapes using the techniques I use for my other paintings. I am quite pleased with the results and will certainly be doing a few more. I hope you like it.

Watercolour Mixed Media Workshop

I had a great time teaching a lovely group of ladies on Saturday. It was my watercolour mixed media workshop and this is my demo piece. I have had some amazing feedback from the attendees and am happy that they have all said they learnt some great techniques that will help them take their own work further. My next mixed media workshop will be on Saturday 4 May 2013.

Latest painting - acrylic on canvas

This is my latest painting, bouquet1, 15.5 x 15.5 inches, it is acrylic on canvas. I have been working in acrylic a fair bit lately and am loving the results. I am doing an art fair at the end of the month so am working towards that at the moment. I hope you like this one.

Latest watercolour

This is my latest watercolour, flora 8, 28x22cm. After the disaster of deleting my photos by accident, I now have to "stock" my blog up again with pictures! I hope you like it.

oh no!

I have deleted all my photos by accident :-( Whilst creating something on Google+ I deleted an album of photos but did not realise they were linked here and there via Picassa! Most of the work I had posted here can be viewed on my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Amanda.Spencer.Watercolours and more photos will appear shortly although sadly some older post will have to be deleted.

If anyone knows of a way to undelete the album please let me know!

Happy new year!
