http://patelliottpaintings.blogspot.com/2011/02/great-scheme-of-things-and-artistic.html
A journey with watercolour and my dog). Friday, 18 February 2011. The Great Scheme of Things and Artistic Ambitions. When I was 20, I decided to learn Ballroom and Latin American dance. I remember clearly the first exam, taken at bronze level. Looking over at the seniors on the opposite side of the practice room and wondering if I'd ever be that good. That's when it struck me how far I'd come, but still there was lots to learn. Art is a bit like that too. I've always wanted to paint a picture of the cruc...

Pat Elliott Paintings: Hashim Akib's demo and my self portrait!
http://patelliottpaintings.blogspot.com/2011/06/hashim-akibs-demo-and-my-self-portrait.html
A journey with watercolour and my dog). Sunday, 19 June 2011. Hashim Akib's demo and my self portrait! Friday night, I met up with fellow blogger Sharon, and we went to watch professional artist Hashim Akib demonstrate how to make portraits in acrylic. It was a fascinating night, He painted a portrait from a male model who was sitting in front of him, in under two hours! He told us to use flat brushes, and be bold in our strokes, so we would not fiddle. For a first attempt, I'm pretty happy with this....

A journey with watercolour and my dog). Wednesday, 6 May 2015. A Dream Comes True. I know it's been a while since I blogged - and after this post it will be a while again yet, because life is a little topsy turvy here. However, I wanted to write and tell you a heart warming story. Due to the power of kindness, Lottie's dream has come true. Not only have we raised enough funds for a scooter so she can walk her dogs again ( see HERE. So grateful for my friends at Sparkling Jewellery HERE. Thank you so much.
