Hello there and a Happy New Year!

I hope you had a wonderful festive season and brought in the New Year with good cheer. I'm writing to let you know about my newest class over at my studio, held in the White Space at WASPS Artist Studios in Dundee. I also have a few new pieces of work to show you, a January sale and an exhibition coming up at the end of this month. Read on for more information. You can also follow what I am up to over on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, all searchable using Jen Robson Artist. Links at the bottom of this email. I look forward to seeing you soon, Jen x

I'm taking part in the project Funaday Dundee 2018. Last year I made a whole new body of work, just creating something fun and different every day. This year I'm creating drawings, embroideries and pastel paintings inspired by the local woods in Ladybank, Fife. I've kicked it off with a wren, robin and a treecreeper, all birds I see in the woods. There are over 60 participants this year and the exhibition will be held in February at WASPS in Dundee. All work is for sale. I'll keep you posted!

Testimonial

When I came to your drawing class I'd had an unopened watercolour set for about 8 years. I was so scared to open all the wee colours in case I made a mess and had no idea what to do or where to start with it. Your class was so liberating for me due to you encouraging me to draw/paint on the large sheets of paper on the wall. I loved drawing/painting with sweeping strokes to music. I so looked forward to coming to find out what you'd planned each week and had such fun in the class with discussions and art therapy inspired excercises. I soon opened my watercolour set and used it - no longer scared of it. Thanks, Jen.
