Jean Haines Watercolour Demonstrations

I have some very exciting news regarding my demonstrations at Patchings this year. I will be at the festival on three days starting on the Thursday with a demonstration for Search Press my publisher. This will take place in the Search Press marquee at 12.00 p.m. You will also be able to see me in the Search Press marquee on Sunday at 12.00 pm for my second demonstration with my publisher. If you haven't been to Patchings before it is well worth the visit. I couldn't tear mself away from the inspirational stands last year and seeing all your favourite products in one location is the icing on the cake!

I am thrilled to share the news that I have been invited by Patchings as a special guest artist for their own marquee to celebrate their anniversary. I will be in the Patchings marquee on the Friday morning. Full details of this day will be available soon.

A little tip for newcomers to the event. You need to purchase tickets for demonstrations and they are very low in price but please buy yours as soon as you arrive. Last year I met wonderful visitors who were so disappointed as they had missed out. Tickets had all sold out to see me so quickly.

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.
