Wednesday Morning Art Club at Chester-le-Street

Joined the morning art at the Community Centre. Demonstration by Chris Bowen - a watercolour and calligraphy artist.

Example of his work

Used watercolour straight from the pan onto wet paper on everything from sky, background hills and foreground tree. Did not work for me on the background but yes to the foreground which is a similar method I use on my harbours scenes with black lines. An artist of some 40 years teaching experience he seemed rather nervous and told some awful jokes to the point of annoyance.
