28th June 2025 Ms Wendy & Beena   Ms Wendy’s watercolour in the Chinese style beautifully portrays the high-speed rail in China. The train, resembling a graceful fish, navigates the mountainous terrain with elegance. Her painting not only captures the motion but also the pure beauty of the high-speed rail.   China has one of…

27th June 2025 Beena   Hi everyone, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of comments I received on today’s painting. I painted this house at the edge of a cliff in watercolour and outlined certain areas with pen and ink. My greeting was, “Wonder what it is like to live in a house on…

20th June 2025 Beena   My constant critic, Mr M, had a lot to teach me this morning. However, I embraced his feedback because I didn’t think he was criticising just to hurt my art. I used coloured pencils and soft pastels to create that lamp against a dark background, accompanied by a wall of…

A friend suggested my drawing was of Melania Trump, and I couldn’t help but burst out laughing in the middle of a shopping centre!…

  13th June 2025 Beena   Hello, I received some interesting comments on my painting today. I created this piece based on a photo taken by Riccardo in Morocco recently. I loved the vibrant colours of Morocco. I used acrylic paints for this artwork.   The first comment remarked that my bed had a panoramic…

In just five months, we have achieved this remarkable feat, which is a testament to the dedication and talent of our contributing artists. To commemorate this success, I present the cross-stitch portrait by Matthew George.   When Allan and I embarked…

  4th June 2025 Mr Mani & Beena   Mr Mani’s pen and ink artwork, an abstract piece, represents my interpretation of an elegant lady’s face. This is why I have included it in the portrait series under pen and ink.   I recognise that art is subjective and open to various interpretations. I encourage…
