Watercolour Workshops 2012

Whilst my watercolour workshops for 2011 are fully booked my new dates are now available for sessions and locations in 2012.

Those on my email workshop list will be notified and I will be announcing the themes and news of each session on my blog soon.

A lot of thought and energy goes into every workshop with an aim to make it the very best day ever and one that is filled with inspirational information in a fabulous working atmosphere. Each one day and two day workshop will be very special. This is because I know 2012 is going to be the best art year of my life to date for reasons that I will share at a later date. It is all very exciting!

Please can I suggest to all artists who are interested in attending my workshops,could you book as early as possible. They do fill very quickly and spaces are limited to ensure a great day is had by those who come. I don't squeeze as many people into a room as possible for financial gain. All artists have a table each with personal space to move and enjoy painting. There is plenty of room to be close to me when I am demonstrating and everyone can hear exactly what I am saying for each brushstroke.

This means my classes are smaller and personal but on this I won't budge because a quality day is what I aim to give on all counts including the coffee and tea breaks! We have goodies in store!

Please email me on jeanhaines@hotmail.com if you wish to hear the workshop dates by email personally and as soon as possible.

2012?

It's going to be a year when YOUR dreams come true.Lets work on that together!

The Artist Magazine : Book Review

Jean Haines' Atmospheric Watercolours

"The book is nothing less than a paean to the wet in wet technique. If that's your thing, prepare to be amazed. Jean Haines credits Jean Louis Morelle, and in many ways this book is the sequel to Morelle's remarkable, but very technical work, showing the wealth of creative possibilities the technique offers. A lot of the images are barely recognisable and yet you instinctively know what they are. I wish I knew how, because this is impressionism taken to its logical conclusion and reminiscent of some of the later work by JMW Turner. You will have to take it from me that "First signs of a face appearing magically from a first wash of watercolour" is pure alchemy. This is an extraordinary book."

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour:" Fastest Selling DVD!

"Amazing Ways With Watercolour" from Town House Films is the fastest selling DVD with the company to date! Record breaking pre-orders for this much awaited film saw requests for copies flooding in from all over the world. A wonderful introduction into working with watercolour minus the use of a preliminary sketch this DVD removes the fear, stress or pressure from worry about how to use watercolour. Instead the focus is on having fun, enjoying vibrant colour combinations and allowing the medium to create the subjects with just a little help from the artist. A really exciting new DVD to own. Whilst the DVD sold out in the first few months since its' release due to popularity it is now in stock and available directly from Town House Films.

How To Paint Colour and Light in Watercolour

"This book is a wonderful introduction into Jeans' way of working and gives an insight into her way of thinking and approach to a large variety of subjects. All painted minus the use of a preliminary sketch."
