Watercolour Passion: New DVD

Watercolour Passion

My new DVD

I can't believe how fast this year is flying by or how many wonderful things are happening in it. Today I was talking to my publishers, then the Artist Magazine regarding a wonderful competition connected with my feature in their June 2012 issue and later a gallery regarding my exhibitions this year.

And even more exciting news is that my new DVD is now available to pre order from Town House Films directly or from my web site.

You can see a clip of my new DVD " Watercolour Passion" via this link.

I find it fascinating that not too long ago I would avoid driving long distances and yet I drove to Norwich to create this new film and loved it. My aim in " Watercolour Passion" is to lead you into my world and studio by starting with my colour exercises which have taught me many of the new colour combinations and effects that are in my latest paintings.

Only by experimenting can we grow and evolve in our work which is why I set a challenge in the opening section for everyone watching to do just that. Evolve and grow as artists!

These exercises lead to three demonstrations for a variety of subjects. I'm hoping this film witll inspire, motivate and open eyes to painting any subject with new approaches, new colour combinations and techniques and always have fascinating results.

I have been quite nervous waiting to see this new film but now I have seen it I am over the moon. Because its fun, relaxed and full of information and the tips that I share in my workshops. These have become so popular and fully book so quickly that by filming a new DVD I can share my passion for watercolour all over the world without having to jump on a plane or suffer from jetlag!

This film brings me right into your home and we can paint together ,enjoying every single brushstroke!

I hope you like it!

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.
