After far too long, I finally managed to film one of the new drawings I’m preparing for the Staithes Festival from the 15-17 September.
This is just the line drawing stage -the paint will follow shortly. Hope you enjoy this… I’m a little rusty in the filming department.🤓
A quick post today…I just uploaded the second part of my Staithes drawing…this part features the addition of watercolour washes..you can watch it here.
A more detailed post will follow in a few days; in response to many comments and requests, I’m writing a recollection and thoughts on my experience on Watercolour Challenge, which is currently being broadcast on Channel 5 at 4pm here in the UK.
Happy to announce I finally got around to filming a new demonstration for my YouTube channel-well, at least parts one and two-which are now live to view.
In the light of the continually evolving COVID situation, I’m resigned to the fact that, with a couple of exceptions, my usual calendar of demonstrations for art clubs and societies is unlikely to resume until next spring at the earliest: many clubs rely on village or church halls for venues, and for obvious reasons these aren’t available and won’t be for some time.
So, I have decided to set myself a target of a new YouTube video on a weekly basis. Logistically it’s not an issue, it’s the subject matter I could use some help with: if there’s anything specific you’d like to see demonstrated, please let me know and if it’s within my abilities I’ll be happy to do so.
Here’s the link to YouTube
In response to many requests I’ve started a video channel over on Youtube, and have uploaded a few test videos. I must say the reaction has been very positive so far, so I’ll be continuing the project, mainly short demonstrations of how I create a line and wash drawing, then, when I get to grips with the mechanics of filming-lighting, music, commentary ( or not), I will progress to longer features.
Here’s the link to my last clip, and you should be able to find the others easily…..if you want to, you can always subscribe to my channel so you’ll be notified when I post a new film. Constructive feedback and critiscm is always more than welcome, of course.
