Original line and wash illustration, watercolour and ink on watercolour paper, September 2022. This piece was created to compliment my favourite soup recipe and celebrate seasonal september vegetables. The recipe - Carrot, cumin, and red lentil soup - is written on the reverse of the page. 

 

Unmounted.

Dimensions: 16 x 30cm

 

Artist's note: 

In order to save paper, I often paint on both sides of a page. Many of my originals have small offcuts or snippets of other images on the reverse. Artist's have been doing this for centuries and small remnants like these are usually hidden by the frame or mount. 

 

Mounting/framing available on request. Please get in touch via contact@valerian.co.uk with any questions.

    "I’ve had great fun practising my newly learnt skills.  All that I hoped to achieve from the workshops - a looser style, working quicker, being able to work without needing magnifying lenses - has been achieved, and more. What has emerged in me is a new attitude to my art in that I no longer worry about it being perfect but about enjoying the process of portraying what is in front of me. Emma is a gifted teacher - as well as being a very pleasant person who made the sessions so enjoyable as well as productive.

     

    Here’s my first attempt, and then a couple of examples from the end of the course. What isn’t captured here is the increased enjoyment in drawing and painting I gained from those first efforts to how I feel when drawing and painting now".
