Art in the Park!

Today I cycled over to Campbell Park for the Art in the Park Festival hosted by Milton Keynes Islamic Arts Heritage and Culture. 

Tile making, calligraphy and geometry workshops were in full swing in the marquee while live Islamic tunes played on stage and whafts of healthy delicacies filled the air!

My geometry art

I took part in a geometry workshop 'Art of Design, Persian Illuminations (tazhib)' held by artist and art therapist, Mojgan Lisar. The process of tracing the Tazhib design and delicately filling in sections with watercolour was really relaxing. The only decision required was the choice of colour combination!

In Persian Illuminations, these small designs are repeated make beautifully intricate
and symmetrical octagram art.

Art in Action Festival

I spent today meeting some lovely artists and makers at ‪Art in Action‬ Festival.

There was lots to do; saw inspirational artwork, listened to beautiful sounding bowl music, took part in a public weave and enjoyed shawarma wraps followed by lavender and honey ice-cream. 

Hard work all this research!

If I had to choose a favourite piece of artwork from the day, it would have to be Eve Kelly's wonderful needle felt piece 'Felted Reflection', displayed in the Best of the Best exhibition marquee.

Westbury Arts Centre Summer Fair

Brilliant day as stall holder at Westbury Arts Centre Summer Fair! 

My acrylic demonstration gave me the chance to discuss my painting technique with new visitors and old friends of Westbury. A great surprise to see my Aunt & Uncle visit the Art Centre today too.
To all those who joined the fun today, a big thank you for coming!

Beautifully colourful Summer Fair banner made by textile artist Helen den Dulk,

Warning - artist at work! My live painting demonstration of a pet portrait, acrylic on canvas

Here are step-by-step pet portrait photos taken during stages of my acrylic painting demonstration.

1: Transpose my sketch onto the canvas.
Starting to fill in indicative areas of colour.

2: With the first wash of colour in place, start to add definition.

3: Adding tone, features and detail.

The next stages will be to add two more layers of paint, one to define shadows/highlights and then the final layer of dry brushing to bring out the texture of the fur.

I'll post more pictures once the portrait is finished!
