Sharing watercolour techniques on my new blog

Posted 4 months ago

I’m going to indulge in some “shameless self promotion” here, my only excuse being that I’m in it to SHARE more than anything else.

Here is the first post on …

How do I reach the homepage from my laptop?

Posted 8 months ago

Can anyone tell me how I access the redbubble homepage from my computer?
I seem to get straight through to MyBubble and can’t find the homepage entry to redbubble to see the images on there.
Help!…it’s such a simple thing but I can’t figure out how to do it! Thank you to anyone who can help.

Thank you oh lovely buyer!

Posted 9 months ago

Just to say thank you to the lovely person who bought a photographic print of my “Small Boy and Cat” image. I am really pleased…as this sort of thing does not happen too often in my life, so it was a really nice surprise! I wish people would send a bubblemail so that I could thank them personally. Hope this will do instead.

Many thanks to the lovely person who bought quite a few cards of my work today.

A warm thank you to the lovely person who bought a card of my Hellebores the other day and the equally lovely person who bought a print of my Tree Peonies earlier today.
I don’t know who you are but you have made this artist very happy!

Best Wishes from Ann

A Step by Step demo of Blackberries for those who might be interested...

Posted over 1 year ago

I thought I’d add the different stages of my Blackberries painting for anyone who’s interested to have a look at…only you wont know it’s there unless I tell you!
I often take photos of each stage in case I want to use that painting as a workshop project to teach and practise watercolour techniques such as designing a composition,laying washes, negative painting, etc. etc.…

Hands across the Water collaboration

Posted over 1 year ago

I took part in the dolphin jigsaw Hands across the Water collaboration conceived and organised by Barbara Glatzeder and here is the result. Eleven artists who hardly knew each other or knew of each other working together to produce one piece following a colour and vague subject theme.
Wonderful synchronicity and amazing intuition and mutual awareness takes place. I don’t know how it works,…

Redbubble Calendars rock!

Posted over 1 year ago

Yay! Today my Redbubble calendars arrived! Taking advantage of the 25% reduction offer, I sent for some of my own calendars!
I’m a great believer in trying to achieve the most benefit from the least amount of effort…(ok, I’m lazy!)…so thought I would solve Christmas present problems while at the same time publicising my work and having seasonal stock to sell at my works…
