She is a brilliant teacher and these painting are put together one step at a time, with her demonstrating each step and then keeping an eye on everyone to see that they are getting it right. So the play of light on the hills was practiced on another piece of paper first, learning how to dry brush properly, the lines to follow when applying the paint and building the colour by using four different shades of green over a brown base. I wouldn't have had a clue how to do that without being shown.

Great job. Do you feel this is all down to the course, or did natural ability play a part?
