Autumn Workshops

September to December 2024

With Autumn just around the corner, now is the ideal time to sign-up for that pastel workshop you have been promising yourself. I have a variety of different workshops running through to December, at both Parnella House in Devizes and Wildfire Barn in Wilsford Wiltshire.

There's something for everyone from absolute beginners to experienced artists.

There are standalone whole day workshops, series of 3 hour sessions and 6 week courses, so something to suit every budget too.

Lots of different topics to choose from as well, including pastel techniques, understanding and using colour and still life.

I am so looking forward to helping you get started, seeing your work develop, welcoming you back or meeting you for the first time.

For details on all the different topics in this series, dates and costs, please take a look at my Workshops page.

Oil and Water Do Mix!

I have recently returned to working in oils and have set up a new studio dedicated to this medium in my garden.

I currently cannot decide which I prefer more for paint application, palette knife or big brush, so I employ both!

I launched my new series of oil paintings in July during Marlborough Open Studios and you can find details and prices of these seascapes on my Works in Oil page.

Jackson's Art Prize 2024

I was very proud to have my works longlisted for the prestigious Jackson's Art Prize this year.

The organisers recieved an amazing 15,345 submissions this year and the judging committees then narrowed it down to a longlist of just 426 artworks which means my entries were in the top 2.7% of entries!

My entries were a series of new still life pastels

• Apples, Oranges and Wine Bottles
• Flowers, Fruit, Physalis and Glass
• Pottery, Plastic Glass, Fruit and Cloth

All details and prices for these paintings can be found on my Current Curated page
