Hi Norah, Thanks for your message and for the lovely card you sent after your workshop with Kevin Flood. I'll be in Roundstone for the course at the end of May with John. Will you be joining us? I hope so. My compliments for your work, I really liked the one with the tree. I admire you for having found the time and the will to paint despite your busy life. My brushes are still misbehaving!! Hope to see you in Roundstone!

Hi Norah

Thanks for your message. Hope to see you in Roundstone in May on John's next landscape course????
You have produced some lovely pictures since. Keep up the good work. Neil

Thanks Norah,

I have to try something else - I keep going back to boats etc.
I was just looking for my notes on JD's 6 stages - or was it 10 !?
Hope to see you in Roundstone.

Thanks for your comment re my painting of a Hibiscus flower.
I used acrylics

More than welcome to join us anytime Nora!

Hi Nora,
Thanks for your lovely comment..I see you've been busy creating beautiful work.Your piece mullughmore2 i particularly like. great handling of watercolor. I find that medium very hit and miss, and admire anyone who can get to grips with it!!

Hi Norah
Good to hear from you, hope you're painting away. Maybe see you on May 23rd in Roundstone - you can go out to Eirvellagh! John

Hi Norah, Thanks for your comments. I have to confess that I only pulled the canvases out from the back of a cupboard last month and finished them - using an Aer Lingus Cara magazine with conamara photos as a guide!! Are you bringing some of your work to Roundstone? Would love to see them close up. Neil

Welcome Norah, love your sketchbook, great idea and lovely drawings, watercolours and paintings. John

Thanks for the comments, it was a very memorable place to paint.

Thanks Norah

I'm really enjoying Plein Air and thank you for your comments. I look forward to meeting you in Wexford.

Thanks Norah,hope we meet at the week end.

Thanks Norah

Thanks again Nora.Yes I m a big fan of ken h. work ,well spoted

Sorry forgot to put the h in ,,,,Norah

Thanks, Norah.
Hope the Dub P.E meeting goes well on Saturday at Farmleigh. The forecast tonight is for the good weather to last through the weekend on the E. coast. Fingers crossed. I'll be working and will have to wait until Sunday for my 'fix'. Have a good time and regards to all there.

Thanks Norah .I am into the dvd s myself.

Norah , thanks for the welcome - it look like a great community site and seems to actually work ! Subliminally Dali would of course be an influence but not as much as Magritte ... the difference is subtle. Don't suppose it is a great starting point to involve oneself in plein air but I love to experiment !

Hi Norah, thanks for the comment, don't know about the discipline and experience, I was just trying to break my habit of too much detail, great fun.

Hi Norah
Thanks for your comment.
I love the watercolours you did in Spain . Strong brilliant colours - and you can almost feel the warmth in the pictures.
Your style has changed ? or was it the Spanish sun???

Hi Norah, thanks I think I will! :-)

Hi Nora,
Don't forget a headlamp on Thurs. ( even if it can be attached to your easel somehow) . .The campers headlamp has a "Blue" hue from it which is easier to read your colors with. -

Norah,
I dont think I received the photo's- what were they of?
Sorry wont see you tomorrow, Sat.
Best
JOHN O'FLYNN

thank you for the comment about my painting.if you are familier with the film; the quite man, staring john wayne and maureen o hara,the painting was completed from the bridge,that they sat on.keep an eye out for it next time you see it. patrick farrell

Thanks for your lovely comments Nora..your right about the color that's around at the moment..I don't think I've seen anything like it before...stunning. Feel like a child in a sweet shop! Hope you get a chance to try and capture it soon. We've a load of hints now for keeping warm..polystyrene mat, bamboo fiber thermals,nylon stockings over your shoes ..Target store for undies..electric gloves..we'll be like aliens from another world...............!

Hi Nora,

Welcome. Hope you are able to make Sat, if not I'm sure we will manage to meet up soon.  Kate.
