Students at work

Over the year there have been several young people come and paint with me - usually after school- all great fun, lots of laughter and learning and luckily for me they can paint in the outside studio during fine weather where they can be a bit 'free-er' with the materials if they need to.

I find the windows especially useful when practicing things like portraits, or to sketch out an idea with them - if you use whiteboard pens the glass wipes clean really easily.

We had our end of year breakup yesterday although from what I hear they are keen to go and paint out at a local wharf (and do some fishing at the same time) so might have to organise a 'feild trip' in a few weeks.

I've been promising to post some pictures of them at work so there they are...
