Choice of two: Illustrate a poem, or paint a water scene using cling film

The next session is down as illustrating a poem or a piece of literature.  If you have decided what you are doing with this subject, great, come and do it; but following Frances Winders inspiring demonstration last week, several participants thought that they would like to try her techniques so I’m writing a list of kit you might need.

Strong watercolour paper, brushes and cling film.  You could also bring some household salt, which is fun, and oil pastels.

You can use watercolours, gouache or acrylic paints but not oils, and probably a covering for the tables would be good idea too.

I have books on both of the artists she mentioned, Kurt Jackson and Anne Blockley, which I will bring.  If you have a photo you would like to paint, bring that as well.
