SAA challenge “On reflection" 

SAA PAINT magazine

January 2014

I've only just received my copy of January 2014 SAA PAINT magazine . It's lovely to have had one of my watercolours "ESPRESSO POT" published alongside other SAA members work as an example of “metal objects” for this year's SAA challenge “On reflection" ... "getting to grips with painting metal painting surfaces ".

If you'd like to join in with the challenge you can find full details of this year's SAA challenge HERE or  

SAA website under COMPETITIONS  :  http://www.saa.co.uk/index.php  

….I'm looking forward to seeing the challenge throughout the year . Lastly a special  thanks to the SAA team for selecting my painting  "espresso pot" .
