A Painting Session from Life and Pictures - Lillies











We love to use the opportunity to work from life. To draw real tangible things that we can hold and move in front of us, to see from all different angles.

To paint flowers from life is beautiful. Here a group of residents in a Buckinghamshire care home for the elderly and those with dementia paint and draw lilies and flowers from life.

The conversations this started was beautiful. Memories of weddings, birthdays, visits to gardens were but some of the conversations that floated around the table on this day.

Here we used watercolours, pencil and pens on cartridge paper.
