I have done very little art at the moment but am working hard on my art things - if you get my gist!
Saw the Hockney exhibition and can say that I wasn't particularly impressed! Why? The paintings lacks substance and soul..
New Forest Artist working in watercolour with pen as 'Travel Sketches' and paintings in oils or acrylics. I also do Children's book Illustrations and have written my own books.

About Me
- Artist diary by Sarah Orchard
- Art has always been an integral part of my life. At the age of 50 I was able to complete a long awaited foundation course and HNC/HND. From this experience I have developed my love of pastel and watercolour. Rubens has always inspired me with his fluidity of movement; Degas and Lautrec I admire with their rough marks and blends of colour,their freshness of approach. I feel I have been given a talent for a reason and gradually the purpose shall unfold... sarah.orchard54@hotmail.co.uk Note: Images are Copyright Sarah Orchard © 2009
