WATERCOLOUR PAINTING

I'd love to be able to paint, it's a wonderful gift to have. But I tried a day course in watercolour painting and decided that I had absolutely no talent at all. What I came home with was a painting that a primary school child would hang on the fridge door!
I'd love to be able to sing as well - but again, no talent! There must be something that I'm good at but I'm still waiting to find out

Thank you for that web address, Nono, what a good way to get started!

I wish there was a community centre near me, there is absolutely nothing in this village, I have enquired about classes for pottery etc in the town, but everything is evening, I don't go out alone after dark, you wouldn't want to go into town here after dark anyway , I don't like coming back to an empty house after dark either, I am quite a distance from the road so would be worried about being outside when it is pitch black.

Since moving here 5 yrs ago I go to a weekly morning art/craft gp in local methodist church hall .Not a class -just a sharing of knowledge and techniques. and chat!.From being a beginner I've improved my skills-mainly drawing and water colors.I'll put some on my profile
Am now running out of wallspace!!

Spindrift (what a lovely name) have you looked for a U3A branch locally? Most of their activities take place by day.

lucyjordan you have some beautiful work. I've dabbled in the past and have so much kit but never seem to make the time to finish or begin anew.
I don't know about you Grandmacool but I'm going to make time and have another go now.

Lucy - love your paintings - I wish I had your talent!

Lucy, your paintings are amazing!!
