My Favourite Artists

 

Artists and designers that have inspired my love of art are listed below. They have changed the way I see the world.  Each of these has inspired how I draw, design and paint. 

If you have a favourite artist take a moment to think about what you like in their work.  Is it the composition?  Subject? Colour? Just taking time to think about this may help you cultivate a style of your own.

Stylising and Abstracting Seascapes May 2015

Friday was the final class in an exciting course where students took seascape images and created stylised, semi and abstracted seascapes. 

 

Here are some of the paintings completed - a big thank you to the artists whose work is shown here and many thanks to Liz who also attended, but unfortunately missed the photo session.  

Best wishes
