I just wanted to thank you for a terrific workshop in Wagga last week.
And thank you for pushing me through the "pain barriers" when I thought all hope was lost, earlier in the week! :-) The workshops are so intensive, and its really nice to now be able to look back at my achievements for that week. My little painting is in the process of being framed, and I'm very proud of him. I hope your trip back home was uneventful, and I look forward to the possibility of seeing you at another Art School in the future.
All the best and thank you again, for the knowledge shared and for all the inspiration!
I found just what I was looking for in painting birds and animals in oils. You taught me a new technique and I am very grateful. My son is very impressed with the technique as well. Anyone who truly wishes to do better would do well to enroll in one of your classes. - Joan Lewis
"Many thanks for a great week. I liked your excellent advise – learn from the best – not the 70%’ers."
My Trip To Mitchell School of Art "Last week I had the extreme pleasure of attending Mitchell School of Art in Bathurst NSW Australia. Spent my week studying the techniques of Stephen Powell, an Australian extraordinar Wildlife artist. I am normally a watercolourist and so this transition to using oils was a little different but I got into it in a big way.
His method is very meticulous and the results are amazing. On top of all that he is a really nice person and seems to enjoy passing his knowledge to those who wish to take it in. We had only 4 in the class and this was not economic for the School but great for the 4 of us who had the privilege of painting with him...........""Just a quick note to say that I entered my wedge tail eagle painting in the Sofala Show this weekend and won 1st prize as well as winning a 1st for a landscape. Had success in the photographic section as well and won quite a few categories here too.
I reworked the eagle and he looked magnificent enough to win a prize, thanks, I owe a lot of that to you."
"I have just completed another Mitchell School of art in Bathurst. Once again I choose Wildlife art with tutor Stephen Powell and once again, I have come away enthusiastic. "
