A New way

I was browsing through Instagram when the artist Joanna Gray’s work caught my eye; not just the final result but the process she so clearly demonstrated in a reel. I took my time to really study what she was doing to understand how she was achieving the results she gets.

I was quite taken aback by how beautiful and free the result was, so I reached out to her and asked a few questions which she so quickly and generously answered.

So I decided to try her technique and was completely bowled over by how much I enjoyed the process and the final result.

I have no interest in copying someone else to produce what they produce, I am however focused on taking on influence and new techniques that I can make my own and I have never used watercolour like this before.

This is a joy and it’s exciting. I’ve been coming home at lunch to try it out again and again and again.

Does this mean that I abandon how my style? No, I embrace a new way of doing things so that I can integrate it into my practice.

So, here’s the first…
