Nothing like a challenge!

 I thought I would try and paint a crystal bowl, it was much more difficult than I thought it would be.

I struggled with this one!

 Deciding to leave the netting on the lemons was not the best of ideas, I really struggled to paint it.

About Me

helenmortlock@gmail.com

I taught art in high schools for over 30 years in the UK,
Hong Kong and Venezuela.
Am a founding member of AVA, the Venezuelan water colour association, a member of the Caracas Circulo de Dibujo and lately have joined the Caracas Urban Sketchers group.
I have kept a sketch book on and off since I was a student and wish I were disciplined enough to draw in it every day.
This blog is a space to post sketches and water colours,
a supplement to my website.


Profesora de arte a nivel de secundaria por
más de 30 años en el Reino Unido, Hong Kong y Venezuela. Miembro fundador de la Asociación Venezolana de Acuarelistas (AVA), miembro del Circulo de Dibujo y más recientemente, del grupo Dibujantes
Urbanos de Caracas.
He mantenido un libro de apuntes desde que fui estudiante, quisiera ser más disciplinada y usarlo todos los días.
Este blog es un espacio para divulgar mis apuntes y acuarelas complementario a mi página web.
