#19 - The Road Home Online Paint Along

I believe a landscape can be an escape... a window into an adventure or a memory or an escape. This is a road near where I live in Queensland. But I hope it makes you wonder what's at the end of that road... and get inspired to paint the road to your own home, perhaps? Come, paint with me :)

Sometimes a subject appears in your life, begging to be painted! These bees are that subject! I've long known of the importance of bees, and in this painting we celebrate them and their place in (and literally ON) nature. It's a fun one, and I hope you enjoy the 'accidental learnings' as well!

#30 - Caravan Dreaming Online Paint Along

My sister went on a caravan trip - her son got his croc stuck in an escalator, her other son broke his arm on the monkey bars, and she realised she was not cut out to do home schooling. So...my suspicion is that caravanning may be better in our dreams than in reality. Let's go with that.

I believe a thoughtful, and slightly messy table, is a sign of a good day - a happy event, a fine memory.

#39 - Lemon and Limes Online Paint Along

This is a classic combination... blue and white plates look good with most things though, don't you think? And the yellow of the lemon with the blue also makes me think of Ukraine, with every stroke of the brush a prayer for peace. This is a very classy painting, to work through slowly, and the results are so worth it.

#40 - Puppy Love Online Paint Along

Whenever I ask my Members what they'd love to paint, "Dogs" and "Cats" always come high on the list. We painted a cat in "#21 - Hiding in Sight" so here is a gorgeous dog.

I hope this gives you the confidence to try painting your own loved pet!

#41 - Wattle & Wrens Online Paint Along

Many years ago I taught a face-to-face Paint Along with little green birds on branches.

Of course, it's all step-by-step. I hope this painting is a joy!

#42 - Brilliant Sky Online Paint Along

There's something special about sunsets and sunrises - that's why so many of us photograph them! But I'm not a huge fan of paintings of sunsets where the foreground is a flat black silhouette of trees and things. So this painting has more. The amazing sky, united with a sizzling, bright, colourful scene. I hope it gives you the confidence to see landscapes in uber-full colour!

There's so much to like about this painting - the bottle, the whale, the underwater corals - and so much to learn - glazing, chalk stenciling and details! It's a super cute whale in a super cute bottle. And it's very possible you might have to paint more than one. Just saying.

#48 - Klimt's Elephant Online Paint Along

There's so much to be learned from The Masters. And Elephants, for that matter! (Did you know elephants can distinguish between languages???) I've always loved Gustave Klimt's penchant for patterns. And colour. So combining the two seemed like a lovely thing to do.

#50 - The Swan Boat Online Paint Along

Contrast and boldness make for eyecatching artworks, and that's what this painting has in spades. Oh... and love... because who can resist the idea of chicks catching a ride on their mother's back. You can feel how soft and fluffy they are, right? Let me step you through the layers to create this lovely painting.
