We love Roses…
…and a daisy too! These were the flowers used to teach the ‘comma stroke’ to the lovely people attending our recent workshop at LOTT Bazaar in Royal Leamington Spa. Some had never attempted Folk Art style painting before so it was a little challenging but everyone worked really hard and the end results speak for themselves. I gave a brief outline of what we would be doing during the evening before the group moved on to practice the brushstroke with heads down, deep in concentration. Fabulous results from everyone and a very happy group of people at the end 🙂…

WI Dotty Challenge
Last week saw my first Speaker engagement for the Warwickshire WI (Women’s Institute) of the year. The local Long Itchington Branch was attended by over 50 ladies and, following their formal meeting, I was delighted to be able to introduce them to Folk It! Demonstrating the dotting technique to create hearts and roses, the ladies soon got to grips with the technique and produced some very pretty pieces. On hearing lots of laughter I knew lots of fun was being had. Add to that some wonderful feedback and the evening was complete. Would you like a demonstration with member participation…
