In October, my lesson in Wanderlust 2021 went live. This was the first time I’d been part of the teacher line up on Wanderlust – teaching alongside 27 other artists, in a year-long mixed media art journalling course. We actually recorded my lesson in the summer in the studio, although I had planned it several months earlier. I really enjoyed the interaction with the course participants when my session went live in October. It was completely fascinating to see the different variations and creative interpretations of my lesson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme of my session was ‘Haven’ and for me, of course, Greece is my haven, so the project did have a little bit of a Greek flavour! My lesson was rather good value I thought – offering two projects-for-the-price-of-one! In part 1, the course participants were introduced to the art of seascape painting, using just a credit card and some acrylic paint. It’s trickier than it looks, creating a beautiful sky and seascape but is a technique which rapidly improves with practice. Then in part 2, students created a collage from pre-painted papers – making a window scene, complete with window shutters and a vase of flowers, overlooking the seascape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students were building their collages with a selection of hand-painted papers which I had shown them how to create earlier in a bonus session. Here’s one of my (several) demonstration collages in-process…. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was fabulous watching the students versions appear in the private course Facebook group over the course of a week or so… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feedback I received from the students was really great, so hopefully I’ll be asked back to teach on Wanderlust again sometime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
