Via Hook Village Hall<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love demonstrating my approach to painting. Each occasion becomes a conversation. In talking with the people who are watching I am fielding great questions, they challenge, and I always walk away enriched what is said in the time we are together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that was the case on the 21st<\/sup> of August when I gave a demonstration on working with acrylic paint to the Guild of Wiltshire Artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a super quick set-up I demonstrated for about two hours. We drew stumps shortly after 9 pm. I took the painting back to the studio and must\u2019ve spent another two hours, possibly a bit longer, on finishing it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main passages in the finished piece, that weren\u2019t covered in the evening were my reshaping and recolouring the far mountains in the landscape. I thought these were a bit repetitive as we left it at the end of the demonstration. So I was able to make that adjustment and also modifications to the foreground and indeed the buildings which benefited from tweaking their scale especially that line of buildings in the middle of the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big thank you to the Guild for letting me do the demonstration. It was a privilege, and I\u2019m very grateful.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
