Wonderful News!

I knew in January that this was going to be a very exciting year for me. I have no idea how I knew but the feeling was so strong. Maybe my Celtic intuition played a part. I left home  at the beginning of the year for a meeting with my publisher as it was time to approve the colour images for my book before it went to print. At this meeting I met the team at head office and the seed of an idea arose for an exciting new project.

Time has passed but in the background I have been quietly working on new techniques and subjects bringing them to life in a variety of unique ways. I am also receiving incredible feedback on my style with many requests to hold demonstrations all over the world. I feel very humble because I am only doing what I love which is painting and experimenting in watercolour.

Last week just before I left for Alrseford Arts Society to demonstrate I heard some wonderful news which now I am really thrilled to share.

I have been offered a contract for a second book which is really exciting! I am totally over the moon.

Last night I spoke to my brilliant mentor Roz Dace at Search Press and discussed the year ahead. There is so much to take on when writing a book. This time I will have the experience of having written my first book. I also know I have a wonderful team of professionals behind me to ensure  this new adventure will be one everyone enjoys.

I am leaping into the world of being an author for a second time and loving every second.

 I will be sharing my journey on my blog from day one. A new adventure is just about to begin!
