We started with a simple underwater scene, then built it up step by step — adding colour, texture and all those little details that bring it to life.


We kept it nice and simple to start with, then built up the layers — background first, then branches, and finally that little pop of colour with the robin.

You can really feel that Monet influence, but still with everyone’s own twist.

Watercolour is one of those mediums that looks tricky… until you realise it’s all about letting go a little.

Thanks so much to everyone who came this week to our event at @pasticceriadileo, you guys were amazing!🤩

This is the start of a lovely multi-session after school project with one of my younger students.

This was session one of our acrylic floral paintings, and it’s always such a nice stage — loose, soft and full of potential.

There’s something really special about watching a face slowly appear on the page as confidence builds with each layer of shading.



The Stortford Art Society is delighted to announce an acrylic painting workshop where you can paint your own acrylic landscape.

Working step by step from a reference, we layered colour, simplified shapes and gradually brought the whole scene to life
