I wish I found you sooner, we use to live in London 10 years ago. Now we are back in Texas and a trip to London with my children.... maybe we should!; 17 April 2012 at 02:48

Your newest DVD has arrived, has been viewed and is definately loved. A fantastic DVD, packed with little gems of helpful hints..I pick up something new each time I watch it...can't stop watching.
Playing tennis yesterday, I looked over(in between points, of course) and noticed the top of an old cathedral perched above the autumn foliage. I immediately thought of your inspiring atmospheric landscape demo, and felt like I want to have a go at portraying that scene.
As my attention was drawn back to our match by my playing partner...focus, Mike, focus on this point,...I had just decided to take Lacey for a walk around later on and take a few happy snaps and see if we can have a go.
That'll be this week's challenge...along with a few more experimental washes.
I hope Bailey is well, please give him another hug and pat for me.
Awesome DVD, Jean. You ought to be very proud.
Best regards, and thank you very much for your blogging...we really appreciate 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.
