Gardners Book Trade Show Guest Speaker

 Following the " Meet the Artist " event at my publishers Search Press this summer I have been invited to demonstrate as a guest speaker and author at the Gardners Autumn Book Trade Show 2010 which will be held at Warwick University.  It is amazing how your life  changes once you start writing because now I am meeting so many wonderful authors who have written on so many other subjects other than art. So this weekend will find me sharing my passion for watercolour in a completely new way. At a book trade show and I am so looking forward to meeting everyone there.

Artist and author Jean Haines has confirmed as attending.
Well known for her enthusiasm and passion for art, Jean Haines covers a wide range of subjects in a loose and interpretive style. In the 1990s she studied Chinese Brushwork in Hong Kong, which she now incorporates in her expressive watercolours. Light, colour and sections left to the viewers' imagination play a vital role in her paintings. In 1997 Jean moved to Dubai where she held workshops and courses and participated in many prestigious events at major galleries. Her work soon became collectible and she has since sold many pieces which are now in homes all over the world. Following a short period in both France and Belgium, Jean returned to the UK in 2006, and now regularly exhibits and hosts international watercolour workshops for artists from all over the world. She has won many awards for her outstanding work, most recently the Society for All Artists' Professional Artist of the Year, Experimental and Abstract Award.
