Working in sketchbooks I make visual and written notes. Not everything can be painted, birdsong, a snatch of conversation, the passage of time through the landscape. Sometimes I paint on the spot and sometimes the sketches are worked up in watercolour, acrylic, inks and charcoal back in my workshop. I produce sketchbooks for publication as well as handmade artists books for galleries and commissions. Teaching has become a large part of my life. There's nothing to match the ideas and energy in a room of creative people hard at work.. and nothing to match that feeling of a long day in the workshop trying to achieve something close to the picture I have in my head... https://www.suelewington.net/whats-happening daily 0.75 2022-02-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441263594-88UGNSJKNHO58FUOGSQD/IMG_20210916_103429_867.jpg Whats Happening - Scilly Notes has been selling well for a good few years now and is due for an update which I hope to have ready for the beginning of next season. The 2023 calendar paintings are now with the printer so that will be on sale on Scilly at Easter. I am working on the update of Scilly Notes. It’s not going exactly as I planned so that needs more walking on the beach and sitting on rocks looking at the sea. Such a hard life….. Will also be working in and around Penzance for open Studios. This year is suddenly getting busier.. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441258084-TS45V03QUSKGKI3I6AIA/IMG_20211122_191331_883.jpg Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441257389-SDWL0U0HBU47N3E3W0LU/IMG_20211109_104923_065.jpg Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441261346-4LD774RLHPRUJOQ12UE0/IMG_20211028_184613_076.jpg Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441263594-88UGNSJKNHO58FUOGSQD/IMG_20210916_103429_867.jpg Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638441264985-HB9A8X3T5KZOZXQ6UMNB/IMG_20211002_173914_217.jpg Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/1638483832246-0831A373ANIX7H4VOXAC/IMG_20210604_155219_762.JPG Whats Happening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61781df3f6567d12f08a1488/c92d96a1-ecd3-4a87-9811-a5598ed09d4b/IMG_20211122_191331_883.jpg Whats Happening - Classes... I'm working on organising classes and workshops for next year. If you know me you will know I am not a good organiser but with a friend's help (you know who you are Lyn) I hope to get those done in the New Year. I also like working with local art groups and can tailor a class or course to meet your needs. Watercolour, mixed media, drawing, making sketchbooks and artist's books and journals - email me for more info. Have just organised some classes with the lovely Cowslip Workshops. Beginners watercolour, Starting out with sketching and a two day course to make and begin to use a Commonplace book. This is a combination of journal, sketchbook and scrapbook. Go to the Cowslip Workshop website for more info.. Hope to see you there.
