It has been a strange couple of years for us all, life has changed in many ways, but slowly we are getting back to some normality. We were all delighted to hear that this year the Hampshire open studio exhibitions would go ahead. After setting up our doors opened to the first visitors on Saturday 21st August, we have been delighted with the steady flow of people coming through the doors to see and buy our selection of crafts on offer. Our last day is Monday 30th August, we look forward to seeing you……amazingly the weather has been on our side,
My name is Rebecca Evans, living in the New Forest I have been inspired to paint the many animals often seen around me. Having ridden since Childhood, painting equines was a natural path to follow.
I use a variety of media, watercolour, oil, charcoal, pastel,inks, plus a few more, infact I will try most things. Choosing the medium to work with can really change the effect of the art, and therefore the character of the animal. Sometimes it is an instant decision, sometimes it is the mood from within me which determines which medium I choose to use.
I never know what might inspire me next, but if it’s hairy, I will be sure to try.
