Im well underway now creating this new blog,  our recent art supper was amazing such a wonderful family, all so very enthusiastic even when asked to dress in 'baby grows' for the potentially messy warm up, we were prepared for paint to fly!


The evening was a success and they produced some beautiful seascapes to take home and hang on their walls, (studio images to follow).  One person had A level art but the others claimed to have minimal art experience this did not matter as they followed the demonstration and remembered key points in creating a picture with perfect results.


The food picked from the allotment and prepared that day  tasted delicious and also looked a picture, (see photos below) more photos will be added although we forgot to take photos of the mains the lamb and filo ragu and vegetable chilli with a rocket and pomegranate n mint salad, greek yoghurt, breads blah blah blah.  We were concentrating on getting it to the table still hot!

ten minute warm up session .... more photos of art to follow
