Courtney was an amazing instructor. She was beyond patient with us and answered all of our questions (more than once). The sheet she brought to introduce us to the techniques of watercolor were very helpful. She gave knowledgeable tips and tricks throughout, and was so generous with her time.

I enjoyed the class very much and Courtney was a great teacher. She was extremely helpful in explaining different techniques and the results we could achieve by using different brushes, the colors and the application of how much water we use. I feel I learned enough to want to keep taking more classes.

This image was inspired and based on the artwork by Jo Haran's Drenched Chrysanthemum's. It is my second water colour painting, which I completed for my Auntie whose husband grew Chrysanthemum's and who sadly passed away following a stroke a few years ago. My hope for the painting is that it offers her a warm reminder of their happy times together.Please note that I do not have copyright for the original image upon which my painting was based on.

Title or Location: roofs..........a northern landscape
Following an enforced 18 months away from my art I returned to my practice working in watercolour and ink. I work with liminal, architectural and imagined spaces and places within an urban landscape. Using layers my work is an exploration of form, colour and texture aiming to capture the essence of the urban landscape we live in, work in and travel through.
