A painting course in Derbyshire.

Derbyshire Art Workshops

This was only the second art workshop to be held in the new space at Creative Melbourne Gallery. Upstairs above the main gallery floor there is a mezzanine that runs all the way around. This is a light-filled area ideal for painting in. We had a lovely day, everyone was very friendly and chatty with each other and it was a mixed-level group, with half beginners and half improvers. Everyone left with a beautiful and very colourful painting in their own style.

I have had some very nice feedback about the workshop and the venue, and hope to hold another one there in 2023.

“Such a fab day with lovely people and loved our Highland cow herd”

“Just a short note of thanks for a most enjoyable day.I felt that I learned so much. You really are an excellent teacher.Time went so quickly.

Nearly forgot the cake was delicious.

Thank you again.”

“Very enjoyable day, many thanks Sue”

Rainbow Cow Painting Course

I was so delighted to welcome three generations from a family to my Rainbow Cow painting course back in the Spring. Here are the beautiful cow canvases painted by the ladies who were daughter, mother and grandmother. None of them had picked up a paintbrush since school, and they all thoroughly enjoyed finding their creative talents once again. Painting is so therapeutic, and it’s available to everybody, you don’t need masses of equipment to start, and like any skill, the more you do it-the more skilful you become. It’s really quite addictive too!
