			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This month, we are covering the vast world of Mixed Media at Tindalls  Ely, Newmarket and Cambridge. Please check the Demonstration page for  the dates or Tindalls website! www.tindalls.co.uk</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Products used: Raw Canvas, fine threads. Tindalls Cambridge has a  large range of canvases for you to make your own. Not only it works out  cheaper to make your own, you can also make your paintings as big or as  little as you wish! Remember to book one of the workshops AND please  notify me if you wish to learn about making your own canvases! We&#8217;ll  make sure to cover that topic if it interests you! (Mixed media  Workshops &amp; Acrylic with Tindalls)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.corinneblandin.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Queen-for-Tindalls-Mixed-Media-Corinne-Blandin1.png" class="lightview" rel="gallery[856]" title="Queen for Tindalls Mixed Media Corinne Blandin"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-847" title="Queen for Tindalls Mixed Media Corinne Blandin" src="http://www.corinneblandin.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Queen-for-Tindalls-Mixed-Media-Corinne-Blandin1-150x150.png" alt="" width="319" height="319" /></a></p>
<p>Golden Open acrylic&#8230; my favourite acrylic in the WORLD!!!! 6  colours are enough to make the magic happen on the canvas! Titan Buff  (cream), Titanium White, Manganese Blue Hue, Quinacridone Magenta, Hansa  Yellow Opaque or/and C.P. Cadmium Yellow Primrose and Black! It will  cost you about £50 to be geared up! Buy some, you&#8217;ll love them!</p>
<p>In all Tindalls shops, you will find a selection of jewels to stick  on paintings and feathers too! Enjoy creating, see you at the  demonstrations and workshops!</p>
<p>Have a colourful day.</p>
<p>xx</p>

<p>I personally use calligraphy on a day to day base to design, write cheques, envelopes, cards, letters and I absolutely LOVE it! I learnt a lot in a few minutes with Christopher and I had a fantastic time chatting with him. His knowledge and passion for calligraphy are great!</p>
<p>Christopher had as an instructor the worldwide known Calligrapher Gaynor Goffe.<br />
Gaynor&#8217;s work is my greatest inspiration in Calligraphy &#8211; What Gaynor does is precise, beautiful, so well balanced&#8230; I stop there as I could go on for hours! <img src='http://www.corinneblandin.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I think that we are very fortunate because Gaynor lives in Sutton, Cambridgeshire and she takes the time to teach people who express an interest in calligraphy. Seriously, it is worth going to Gaynor&#8217;s workshops&#8230; you&#8217;ll see!! Click on the link and book some special time with the expert!<br />
<a href="http://www.gaynorgoffe-calligraphy.co.uk/" target="_blank">Gaynor Goffe&#8217;s website</a> </p>
<p>I personally run two types of workshops that you might be interested in with Tindalls Ely and Newmarket; Perfect for making fun projects and activities which include calligraphy and flourishing. The workshops that we offer are <strong>Calligraphy and Watercolour</strong> and <strong>Calligraphy for fun</strong>. All are happening in the next few days!</p>
<p>Both workshops are fun and made especially for people to enjoy themselves and have a lovely day creating! We all tend to go home with projects that we are proud to share with friends and family. If you are ready to impress some people with your artistic talent (I believe that we all have an artist in us! <a href="http://www.tindalls.co.uk/art/tindalls-workshop-booking.html" target="_blank">BOOK your workshop now!</a> I really look forward to meet you or see you again!</p>
<p><em>Photo taken by <strong>Claudia Ruggiero</strong>. Many thanks for your assistance Claudia!</em></p>

We did so much in just a few hours! The programme was including shading, layout, proportions, how to get inspiration and the participants drew many different flowers, a Valentine&#8217;s Rabbit and Ely Cathedral&#8230; The morning started with the illustration of four different techniques of shading. Marilyn Monroe was part of the exercise and helped everyone to get a great understanding of shading. The workshop allowed everyone to be as creative as possible and have fun.<br />
One thing that amazed me was to see so many personalities and different styles coming out through a piece of a paper and a pencil!<br />
Same models and so many different interpretations. </p>
<p>Thank you to all the participants and everyone at Tindalls for helping me bring the best of everything to the workshops.</p>
