Hello everyone, and welcome back to another fun week of loose watercolours! How’s your week been? Good, I hope. Now, on my walk around the village this week with Toby I noticed the Daffodils were in full bloom and a neighbough had some little chicks in the garden so I got very inspired and thought this would make a fun, seasonal broadcast, so this week’s Easter springtime special is called ‘Easter Chick’. This week promises to be enjoyable as I’m heading up north for a few days painting to the coast so i’m hoping for good weather and fish & chips too! Keep an eye to see how I get on and maybe try a few of my painting too?So here is the latest Live Broadcast ‘Easter Chick’ which you can catch over on Loosewatercolours.com or click the Live Broadcast Link here :- https://loosewatercolours.com/new-loose-techniques/102-easter-chick We have a great new tutorial over on my Patreon channel for you to try!‘Basket in Springtime’ turned into a lovely painting, and although I have called it an intermediate level, you may surprise yourself, so give it a go?Here is a quick link for my Patreon Members to the ‘Basket in Springtime’ Tutorial right here:- https://www.patreon.com/c/andrewgeesonloosewatercoloursDon’t blink, you might miss it!Haha, this was a great Plein air painting I did recently in a local village, but I thought ‘let’s film it’! and luckily I managed to capture it.Plein air watercolour of Hoby ChurchIt took around 1hr 20s to complete, but you can enjoy it in 23 seconds 🙂 Let’s go back to the 70s!I know you're too young to even imagine, but with my New Tutorial ‘Red 70’s Style Floral’ we can go there.
