Margaret is recognised as one of the leading Pastellists of to-day. She is Vice-President of the Societe des Pastellists de Francais and a member of the English Pastel Society. She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. She is highly acclaimed on both sides of the Channel.
This is the first time a woman has been elected to this prestigious post, and demonstrates how popular her work has become. Her brilliant observation of light and the subtle tones of her painting have been compared to Vermeer as well as to the master of pastel painting, Maurice Quentin de la Tour.
In recent years she has also built up a growing reputation as a gifted oil painter, able to capture the light with the same facility as in her pastels.
Margaret first taught in Paris for the Societe des Pastellistes de Francais in 1993 and only in 1997 did she set time aside to teach here in this country. Her enthusiasm is infectious and her insght into the media and their possibilities make her an ideal tutor. Those who have had the opportunity to experience one of her rare courses have found it both exhilarating and exhausting! She is on hand at all times to encourage and help with advice, but also to inject a sense of fun and enjoyment into this sometimes frustrating occupation.
In this pastel demonstration Margaret shares with us the more painterly approach to pastels. Building up layer upon layer she captures the sunlight and the brisk breeze that fills the sails of these majestic Thames barges.

Malcolm Jarvis trained at Camborne and St. Martins Schools of Art and worked in the advertising industry until the late 80's. Now a professional artist he has many years experience teaching in Adult and Further Education and as a demonstrator for Derwent watercolour and pastel pencils. His subjects are primarily landscapes inspired by the wide skies of his adopted East Anglia which are rendered in his specialist medium of soft pastel. He exhibits regularly and his paintings are in private collections in both the UK and USA.
Malcolm retains a keen interest in drawing and enjoys teaching others especially beginners and intermediates to draw and paint.
This video opens with an explanation of the history of pastel and its properties whilst referring to some of the famous artists who worked in this medium from the 18th Century to the present day. Different papers and boards for pastel painting are discussed as well as the pastels themselves, suggested colour ranges and helpful ancillary aids that would prove useful to the beginner. Malcolm then demonstrates the different kinds of mark that can be made with pastel (at a pace that will enable the viewer to work at the same time) before encouraging the viewer to work alongside him as he produces a complete painting of a typical East Anglian landscape using many of the techniques and marks previously demonstrated.

Leslie Marsh began his working career as a commercial artist. Starting as a lettering artist he progressed to package design and exhibition stands until eventually specialising in technical illustration, producing section and exploded air brush drawings of mechanical and engineering subjects for which he was elected to the Society of Industrial Illustrators. Further qualifications to the Society of Practitioners in Advertising earned him promotion from Studio Manager to Art Director. An admirer of the watercolours of Edward Seago and Edward Wesson he was fired with an ambition to paint watercolour in the impressionistic style and eventually made the break from commercial art to become a practising artist in this medium. His work can be seen throughout Kent, Sussex and Essex where he also tutors at various venues throughout the year, in addition to running his own classes in his home city of Canterbury.
The first demonstration is a painting of the rear of the Barn Studio used by students at Dedham Hall.

Looking towards St. Giorgio Maggiore - The wind and threatening rain allowed a quick sketch before escaping to complete indoors
The Bridge of Sighs - Again the traffic of barges and gondolas allowed a drawing to be made prior to finishing the painting indoors.
St. Mark's Square - This posed problems, not with weather conditions but with people in front of us, to the left and right of us and behind us. So again after the preliminary drawing we escaped again to complete indoors.

Peter Partington was born in 1941. From his early teens he lived by Poole harbour and it proved to have a deep influence. It was easy to escape from school and sit watching the shore line; holidays and weekends were often spent bird watching and exploring the inlets and unspoilt reaches, where sea and marsh intermingle with woodland and meadow. He started sketching at an early age, pursuing this interest more seriously at Bournemouth College of Art and later, Middlesex. He studied all aspects of art and was deeply attracted to the abstract. He then went on to teach art students for many years. As demand for his original work grew, he chose to pursue painting and printmaking professionally. Since then his hand coloured dry-prints, etchings and original watercolours have been avidly collected; he has had numerous one-man shows. He writes magazine articles and his illustration work for books and cards has exposed him to a wider audience. His book for Collins Learn to Paint Birds in Watercolour was launched at the Tryon Gallery in Cork Street in 1989. He has followed this with two further books Learn to Draw Wildlife and Learn to Draw Farm Animals. They are all written with real enthusiasm for the subject and are delightfully illustrated. Learn to Draw Birds is to follow shortly.
In his paintings he seeks out the effects of light and weather on the landscape and its birds and expresses this through the dicipline and yet freedom of watercolour. Robert Gilmour has described his technique as ‘magical’. Few can grasp the intense labour and concentration that has gone into these apparently effortless expressions about the natural world. His work is enlivened by keen observation, noted in his sketch-book, of bird plumage and behaviour in the field. He paints with understanding wit and feeling.
He has been elected to the Society of Wildlife Artists. The International Museum of Wildlife Art has several pieces of his work in its collection. He was invited in the Spring of 1992, by the Artists for Nature Foundation, to join their group of artists to record the Briebrza Wetlands to publicise the need for their conservation. He was invited again to Extradura in Spain in 1994. Both trips resulted in sumptuous books that contain examples of his art. His talent has gained deserved recognition as a prize winner in the European Bird Art Competition. He willing shares his expertise and he now writes regularly for the Artist magazine on a range of painting subjects from landscape to weather, to birds and drawing. He is now living in Rural Suffolk.
This well known water-colourist Peter Partington introduces us to the basics of the art. He covers brushwork, colours, papers, and art wash techniques. He reveals to beginners how they can take their first plunge ‘into the shallow end’ of the rewarding world of watercolour.

Charles Patrickson acquired a Diploma in History of Art at London University, was a Member of the Colne Group and London Sketch Club and Tutor of the staff of Dedham Hall Painting Holiday Scheme.
He was born in Gibraltar but spent his childhood on the Thames Estuary and then in rural Berkshire, which probably accounts for his interest in boats and the countryside. He has produced watercolour limited edition prints of inns, seascapes and French harbours. Recently he has produced three videos instructing in the practicalities of watercolour painting. He has travelled and painted abroad quite widely, knowing Normandy particularly well but always has a strong affection for the British Scene. He exhibits with the ABA in London and has had a number of one-man exhibitions in the Southern Counties. He has exhibited in the Greater London Picture Show and in the RI and some of his work has gone to California.
In this three-part video Charles works on location in the open air. His first demonstration takes us through the steps in creating a tree study; the observation, the structural laying-in sketch, the first broad washes and shaping of Tone areas, to the final expressive touches of detail.The next demonstration deals with the creation of sky and cloud effects; direct colour washes, wet into wet. To round off, Charles shows, with simple examples, how a knowledge of basic Perspective helps to build forms and scenes ‘as the eye sees’.

Brian Brinded has for many years demonstrated the art of rabbit longnetting at country fairs, agricultural shows and game fairs. It is thanks to the comments and suggestions from members of the audience who had difficulties with their own nets that Brian recognised the need for a practical video showing how to set the nets in various ways. It is for this reason that the video does not show large numbers of rabbits being caught but covers the setting of longnets in depth.
Brian shows how the nets were set in the traditional manner by two people. This is followed by a method which can be used by one person.-the Quickset Longnetting System which Brian has developed over the last three years because of the difficulty of finding a reliable partner after his mentor died.
For those tricky situations where it is difficult to approach the sets wihout spooking the rabbits, two methods of pre-setting the nets are illustrated.
Firstly a drop net is shown, it is possible to set three hundred yards or more using this method.
Secondly a lift net, again designed and developed by Brian. This net is laid flat on the ground and raised into position when the rabbits have crossed over it. There is almost no limit to the length of nets which can be used with this method.
Both of these methods and the Quickset Longnetting system have been patented by Brian.
Many thanks to Major and Mrs Gurney for allowing their watermeadows to be used in the making of this video and to Dr's Paul and Birte Kelly for the use of their beautiful garden.

Rob Binnington is a very gifted artist and has internation acclaim.
In the making of this fim, it was not possible to show any one painting session for too long because with oils one has to wait for parts to dry before continuing.
About 20 years ago his wife bought him some brushes and paints for a birthday present and that started my painting career.
He is an unusual artist because he never ventures out to paint. He uses his imagination and memory, thinks of a scene and starts painting.
He has exhibited in Paris, representing Great Britain alongside artists from 17 countries.
