Organising as an Artist

Artists can’t get out of having to spend time organising so many things in order for an art event to do well! It’s a full time job! Did anyone tell you?! So now you’ve found out!

Time away from sketching out ideas and creating is at times frustrating but it has to be done. I don’t know about you, but social media and emails take up so much time. As artists we need to see positive results from our time outlay. Whilst we do these things we’re not being paid, so, when we do sell an artwork – behind that price is also the hours spent doing admin and finding out new outlets that might be interested in our work.

Making a sale means you’re supporting a creative and all she or he has done behind the scenes. So, thank you to all you supporters – you mean the world to us! 🖼️

Pre-amble for Mini Watercolour Paintings and Designs

It’s been a beautiful couple of weeks of teaching art and also creating my own mini paintings and card designs ready for the summer event in Warwickshire this year!

Researching English summer hedgerow plants and flowers and looking forward to the warmer weather! I’ve been taking joy from drawing and planting in these joyful colours!
