Watercolour Workshops 2014

Memories of France

When I lived in France I always loved the many gerinium I saw there in flower.

Vibrant colour always is a treat to work with.

Watercolour Workshops 2014

I am receiving many emails and requests for information regarding my 2014 watercolour workshop programme. There are no details posted on my web site and my 2013 courses are all fully booked in UK and USA.

So that everyone has an opportunity to book places here is an update on my workshop plans next year.

UK 2014 Workshops.

My 2014 watercolour workshop programme of events in UK will be sent by email to everyone on my contact list, by Christine who handles my bookings. This information will not be sent out until late September 2013. The dates will be released later on my web site so, please, if you haven't already sent an email to be added to my workshop list do so now as places go almost immediately.

Italy , April 2014

I will be taking a weeks watercolour course in Italy in April 2014 with Arte Umbria. This course is already fully booked as places were taken immediately, as soon as the course was advertised.

Australia, November 2014

I will be returning to Australia and giving a free workshop to the artists who missed my last course due to my accident. I will also be taking an extra watercolour workshop for artists who are not attending this course. Only fifteen artists will be on this second course and full details will be shared at a later date.

For my USA friends, I have some very exciting news but will be sharing this in another blog post especially for you!

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.
