JEM BOWDEN WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP
THURSDAY FUN
JEM BOWDEN WATERCOLOUR WORKSHOP - 28 September 2024
‘A direct and impressionistic approach to landscape watercolour'
Jem Bowden both impressed and amazed today’s members with his energetic delivery of his style of observational landscape painting using a limited pallet of between 3 & 5 basic colours and working quickly . He provided us with photos and demonstrated each aspect of his rural scene from cool & warm colour mixing, use of light & darks, application of wet in wet for soft edges and wet on dry for hard edges, plus scraping off. Members learned a huge amount from Jem and really appreciated his teaching style. Thank you Jem for an amazing Workshop today and for the gift of your beautiful watercolour sketch for our forthcoming Exhibition in November.
THURSDAY FUN - Thursday 19th September 2024
Thursday Art Group members were invited for an extended Sketching morning at Moira MacPherson’s House & “Parkland Garden” in Kelty last Thursday, 19 September. It was a beautiful warm and sunny morning with so many viewpoints over hills and farmland. And “coffee break” went to a whole new level with home baked scones with cream plus an assortment of jams and shortcake biscuits courtesy of our own Marjorie & Maggie…., delicious. Moira particularly requested Jill Brown (Tuesday Art Group) to join us after Jill had hosted yet another amazing Sketch & Afternoon Tea in her Garden on 5 August.
Thursday Art Group thoroughly enjoyed both of these sessions so much that we found it difficult to leave. Please check our Gallery to see what we got up to on the day.
