Well, as I said last week, I was away with a friend at weekend doing another of those Finnabair workshops that we seem to be hooked on. Gosh she is a tremendous tutor and so nice with it too. This time it was up in Teeside and under the supervision of Sue Tucker. Anybody and Everybody should do a workshop organised by Sue, there is such a lot we can all learn from her. Nothing is too much trouble in the organisation, she puts 110% into it (and more if truth be known). Thanks Sue, thanks Debbie (Sue's helper), thanks hubby, thanks Anna and thanks everyone who went - some real nice people participating.
So what did we do:

The other canvas we did was also with a brush so I did it landscape to detract from the eye a bit - but it was using different colours and also a totally different method of working. Looks much better irl as you can see the sheen of the powders, sprays and the tiny micro glass beads.
The red bag at the back was a gift from my wonderful friend, Lorraine. The suitcase tin was mine, the pouch was a gift (for every participant) from Debbie; the ArtBin pages, the cogs, wings and Texture Paste jars are what I bought. I think it is safe to say the remaining stuff was what I had left over. I just love those cardboard flowers - not seen them before.
So now my desk is getting ready for a couple more canvasses which is why I don't want to show it to you as I have them laid out in readiness for sticking down. I would rather show you the completed versions ... but I have been spurred on by the two amazing workshops I attended at weekend.
Thanks everyone! See you over at Julia's.
