'Fabulous Fruits'

15th August 2014

Another excellent group attended this weeks three day workshop with students coming from Qatar and Denmark and just up the road! All worked hard and we tackled a lot of techniques. Shiny black currants, bilberries with bloom on them, compound fruits like blackberries, complex colour mixes like the plums, hairs, leaves and a final day on composition working with small bunches of Merlot grapes from our greenhouse.
The following are my demo pieces to give a flavour of the course.

I finished this off after class. I think it’s quite cute!
