The Paint Bowls

The Art Garden is also where we manufacture top quality artisinal watercolour paint

The paint is created mainly for sending all over the world with the workshop books

but I create large quantities in bowls just for the Art Garden gallery

it is a radical luxury to be able to use watercolour in such a lush way

so you get to use big soft brushes

in the big beautiful bowls

normally a large scale painting would take ages to prepare the paint from tiny little packages

and you would never get the pigment load like you do with the bowls

Watercolour paint in bowls is something unique created in the Art Garden

and has taken years of experimentation, invention and development

and these bowls are not just straight pigment

they are carefully curated mixes of gorgeous hues, shades and tints

Another Gift

WHO IS IT FOR ?

Anyone who wants to experience painting BIG with watercolour

...This is not something you can do anywhere else

-The cost of having just that much watercolour paint available is pretty prohibitive..maybe impossible....I invented the paintbowls to be able to do this

and you have big boards to paint on the big paper



Large scale watercolour painting ... I reckon its the next evolution in modern painting

Im pretty excited about it

to see more about the art garden click here

Beverley is a town in the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, 133 kilometres south-east of the state capital, Perth, between York and Brookton on the Great Southern Highway.

I have lived here for about 6 years now, and I love it

There are big wide streets, no traffic, and its very relaxed and laid back -

It's a small population but there are a few galleries in the main street now, with more being built

I think it's because its a great place to make art

click here to check out places to stay in Beverley

You can drive from Beverley to Perth - depending on where you live - its about 90 minutes on average - but there are plenty of great places to stay overnight too

Other Workshops

Before I went completely abstract - I first became absorbed in mark making

It helped me to loosen up and realise how pleasurable art was without the boundaries of expectation

Every mark is a surprise - and there is no pressure because it can be a background that you paint over - it is a wonderful feeling

As a controlled artist for over 30 years I felt a rush of the wonder I had experienced as a young artist just learning everything, it was so exciting

Since then I have been breaking more and more boundaries and have immersed myself into abstract art - I LOVE IT - and you can do it too
