We had a look a wide range of flowers in different styles by a collection of different artists. Strangely enough, everyone selected lotus for their paintings!

I apologise – I don’t remember which picture belongs to which artist but we had some interesting results.

The group decided to tackle still life this month. We discussed the positioning of objects – a bit like a landscape – with items of various sizes, colours and textures with levels of overlap. You need to think about how you are arranging your objects and how they will interact with each other – in terms of shape, colour and texture – when you have them on the page.

The collection looked like this:

And these are two of the pictures painted:

The group has now broken for Summer and there will be no further updates until September.

Enjoy your Summer
