This year with Covid restrictions in place it has been much harder to raise much needed funds for The Royal British Legion and every poppy counts.
​
In response I painted this very special Poppy painting, creating a video lesson of 'How to paint your own Poppy painting', which was released at the end of October. I donated £1 of each class fee to The Royal British Legion. If you would like to take my poppy painting class get in touch. You don’t need great drawing skills or experience, just a willingness to try. You just need some basic materials and a little time. You will receive a pre-recorded video by email with written instructions and a reference photograph. I will also be available to support you with any questions in my Private Facebook group.
I then made the original painting available by auction donating 100% to The Legion. If you would like to see me creating the painting see my videos page.
​
The project has raised £470.00, through the auction of the painting, prints, the class and two class members selling their poppy paintings too!
