Hey Reader

This one's a pure joy...

Honestly this is what watercolours are all about for me. When you paint with lots and lots of water and simply drop the pigment in and let it take control...

Watch the video above - even if you choose not to paint this one. It's a total escape for a few minutes to just watch what the watercolour paint can do...

And...I've just gone live with the date and info for my next in-person Summer Watercolour Workshop (it was an absolute honour to teach the Spring one and thanks again for all of you who came along).

Join me for an in-person workshop where you'll get to learn to paint stunning Summer watercolour florals.

Zero pressure.
Zero judgement.
Zero comparison.

Just a friendly and relaxed workshop where I'll teach you how to paint Loose Summer Flowers (5 in particular)in watercolours and some tips and techniques for using watercolours and painting nature based subjects...

Painting without purpose, without judgement and from a place of flow.

Til next time,
Sue 🎨💛

Watercolours wash away the anxiety

Wouldn't it be freeing to focus on just one thing? Hey ReaderIs it just me or do you feel this too?The urge to simplify. To bring your focus back to just doing one thing?To be completely honest with you all - some days it feels as though my head is going to pop with how much the world seems to demand my attention! 🤯And when I feel like this - I ALWAYS come back to watercolours - ALWAYS!It's part of my toolkit.
