Welcome to another very popular weekend challenge – Seascapes! We have received an amazing number of paintings this week and we hope you enjoy viewing them all. We have added all of the paintings and drawings below with students names underneath, along with text about each piece if provided.
Students have created some incredible and very atmospheric paintings and we just can’t pick out favourite – they are all simply stunning!
A shout out to Denise Dancer who’s artwork is in the gallery below. Student Julie Smalley said to Denise – “Kudos! You have managed to combine the two Weekend Challenges. Now that IS clever.” (last weekend was our dog painting challenge) Well done Denise – dog in a seascape receives top marks from us!
We hope that all of our students enjoyed participating in our weekend challenge and we look forward to seeing everyones artwork for the next challenge – published here tomorrow! Stay tuned!
Seascape done in Procreate using the ‘oils’ brush. Started this in February and decided it was time to finish it, thanks to the weekend challenge. Louise DexterThis painting is special to me. Took it as a challenge, not to use any digital tools for drawing tablet or mouse or even software like Photoshop. This is a Touch screen painting using a basic Paint app of Windows. My fingers were the brushes and I completed in 1 1/2 hours, using spray paint and crayon brushes. I could not get very sharp details with this app, but I have managed to paint using the reference photo in the blog post. Gayathri GA surfer on Killiney beach Dublin.

He painted in his impressionist style which he called sketch painting. So this is my first effort in Impressionism Sheila BrownExperiment with a set of brush pens.
