I think you will find once you do pluck up courage there is a whole cross section of people with a cross section of abilities who attend art groups and workshops and they all have one thing in common... they love to paint and you will find that is the common factor. No-one will be looking to see how good or bad you are, they will be delighted you have turned up and from my experience will make you feel very welcome. A whole new world will open up when you get amongst real live artists and you will be able to learn so much from them. Artists are a generous lot and invariably willing to share what they know.... I can't help spilling all I know when I do my workshops... if I'm not careful no-one will want me back as I will have shared everything and have nothing more to tell them!!!Judith Farnworth Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03466625674796659185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2350562909222800870.post-828428783864652572012-07-30T15:18:28.438-07:002012-07-30T15:18:28.438-07:00No need for you to blush Joanne am only telling it...No need for you to blush Joanne am only telling it as it is!!!

Though I'm sure soon enough I'll join a class or workshop, I still feel reluctant and rather shy.<br />Warm regards.KonstantinaPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06082538351399393648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2350562909222800870.post-78240415170459930952012-07-30T07:14:22.329-07:002012-07-30T07:14:22.329-07:00Gosh Judith I am blushing, what a fantastic write ...Gosh Judith I am blushing, what a fantastic write up of your visit to the Friday class. Even though you missed the previous class when we practised the boat and foreground washes you had no problems with the finished painting, in fact I recall you painted a couple of practice pieces to warm you up before you started, always a great idea. Your finished painting looks wonderful, me thinks you do not realise how much talent you have and I know you are passionate about sharing your love of painting and in my book this is what will make you a great teacher. <br />Perhaps ArtTutor should have the link to your blog.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11646903424903647047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2350562909222800870.post-16313743955277710272012-07-30T05:38:00.190-07:002012-07-30T05:38:00.190-07:00Hi Sharon depends on the tutor, but most I've ...Hi Sharon depends on the tutor, but most I've been to involve the tutor doing a bit then you doing a bit and building up the painting step by step with the tutor giving advice and help as you are having a go. However most of the education authority run art classes I have attended aren't like that.... have only ever had one teacher who has demonstrated!!! So you need to be careful about what you are going to and who is running it and whether their style fits your requirements...<br /><br />The other thing to do is join an art group and they often have artists who visit to do workshops... this is what I'm doing..... have been contacting local art groups to see if they need someone to do workshops and they all seem to be on the lookout for someone new.Judith Farnworth Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03466625674796659185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2350562909222800870.post-87561156038434477232012-07-30T05:31:26.068-07:002012-07-30T05:31:26.068-07:00I wish I could have come to this - how do these wo...I wish I could have come to this - how do these workshops work - do you watch the tutor paint and then have a go yourself - never been to one before and a bit nervous about going if I'm honest - not good at painting in front of other people!Sharon Whitleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403989834480218330noreply@blogger.com
