DINA WAKELY WORKSHOPS


These two pieces are meant to be side by side as they are a double spread in quite a big journal (wouldn't fit under the scanner!) but blogger in its wisdom seperated them and put them one under the other....gggrrr!! why does it do that????

Ok moan over..........got back yesterday from two days of workshops with
DINA WAKELY. Dina was teaching at ART FROM THE HEART studio which is in HARROGATE .....home of BETTYS TEA ROOMS.....can't go to Harrogate and not go to Bettys..so we did.......Ok, getting side tracked!.......AFTH run by DYAN REAVELEY

These are some of the pieces that I made in the two days.........of course I am only showing you the ones I am pleased with so far, some of these still need some more work but there are several that need lots more work on them! But that's OK, that's what a workshop is all about!

Stunning work Sue: what an inspiration, you have a rare talent ;o) I think the reason the pics are not side by side is the resolution is too high to fit them in, I resize mine to around 600 across and they fit OK, you should be able then to drag them to be next to each other: good luck! I know how frustrating blogger can be at times lol!

They are lovely. I saw you in a photo on Dylan's blog so I knew you'd been.

Love Betty's Tea Rooms, yum yum!

These look fabulous! I'm so envious - I couldn't go to the workshops 'cos I had to go to work *sigh*. The colours and textures here are just fab :-)

Jo Capper-Sandon said...

Me, jealous? Yep, sure am...

love the merging colours and the shadows of the figure outline.

Haunting in a friendly way...does that make sense to you?
Love the dotty concentric circles too.Great texture.

How long before the big move? Not too far away I bet now.

Hi - I just stumbled on to your site. Very intriguing. I also visited the Designers Challenge site. I'm a new blogger and still trying to figure everything out. I really enjoyed seeing your work, thank you.
