Building The Art Garden
showing how to create gorgeous abstract markmaking artworks with loose watercolour techniques
I have been making paint for years, and recently I have worked out how to package it up so it looks awesome and is easy to send
The paintcards are available seperately for $25 a card at the gallery right now
The paintcard you recieve will be chosen randomly - so probably not the set shown on screen
This workshop booklet is for anyone who wants to learn about markmaking,big watercolour and a modern approach to abstract art
...it can introduce a new technique into an already skilled creatives armoury
- or it can be for the relaxed Sunday afternoon creative exploration
Its a lot of fun and because the process has been broken down into simple steps it makes it easy arty play
is designed for people who might not have all the right supplies and it neatly contains the exercises in one place
It is an excellent 'on holiday' experience, being light and easy to pack, and makes a fabulous gift
- and you also get some free paint
This workshop book is all about an easy technique that helps you to free yourself up and learn to make some marks -
I have spent many years working with this process and would love to share it all here with you in a series of simple steps
Its really new
At the time of writing the group is slowly taking shape
I have worked through about half of the program and am going to be creating lives and videos for a few more months to come

It helped me to loosen up and realise how pleasurable art was without the boundaries of expectation
Every mark is a surprise - and there is no pressure because it can even become a background that you paint over - it is a wonderful feeling
As a controlled artist for over 30 years I felt a rush of the wonder I had experienced as a young artist just learning everything, it was so exciting
Since then I have been breaking more and more boundaries and have immersed myself into abstract art - I LOVE IT - and you can do it too
