Win Art Supplies with International Artists' Day (CLOSED)
Win Art Supplies with International Artists' Day (CLOSED)
Submitted by Kirsty on Tue, 2015-10-27 23:59
Hello everyone! How is your week going, any nice wins to report? Just one win for me since we last spoke of an icing bundle from Renshaw Baking on Twitter. As I have mentioned before we don’t really do Halloween as a family, but the colours will no doubt be used for Christmas baking as there is a really nice Christmas-tree green amongst others! How has your comping been gong lately, keeping up? I don’t know about you but I have seen a huge increase in comps springing up over the last few weeks! Not that I am complaining you understand, but I feel the need to be very organised with my comping – I guess it gets us all into the swing of heavy-duty comping before the rush of the advents doesn’t it!
I find that as well as the increase in comps during the autumn months TV programming really picks up on the march towards Christmas too! As a family we have started to watch National Landscape Artist of the Year 2015 on Sky Arts – my eldest particularly enjoys watching the process of creating a detailed landscape painting from scratch every week. We always say that we are going to start painting as a family, but haven’t managed to get round to buying the supplies as yett!
Did you know that it is International Artists’ Day on 25th October 2015 – what a perfect excuse to dust off those paint brushes and easels or start a new hobby!In celebration Compers News wants to offer our lovely members the chance to win £50 of Hobby Craft vouchers for you to spend on whatever you like either in-store or inline.You could be buying yourself some lovely new paints, sewing or knitting supplies or some craft kits to do with the children or grandchildren over the Christmas season!To join in with this fantastic competition you need to be a registered Compers News member, logged into your account and leave me a comment on the blog below telling me who your favourite artist is.For me I would probably have to say Turner – I am a sucker for a nice English landscape.One entry per person please, your comments will be moderated and as such won’t appear immediately and a winner will be chosen at random from all entries after the closing date of 23:59 on 3rd November 2015.
Happy comping and lots of Lucky Dust to you all!
Kirsty x

Mine's gotta to be Turner, as well! Love his gorgeous yellow and orange colours in Chichester Canal and the fantastic views of Norland Castle. Loads more of his paintings, too! Timothy Spall wasn't bad in the film, either. Thanks for the comp :)

Because I love the painting I have of The Lady of Shalott by John William Waterhouse I would have to say him. The lady is from a poem by Lord Tennyson.

My absolute favourite artist is Stephen Darbyshire, a Cumbrian artist who produces some fabulous paintings. I particularly love his 'through the window' pictures in which I can really lose myself. I'm so envious of his talent!

Mine's Vincent Van Gogh, I was fortunate enough to see his work in Paris last year, holding my husband's hand viewing Starry Night over the Rhone in the Orsay is one of the best moments I've had.

My favourite is Sally Swannell, I have several of her prints up in my Dining room, I just love the New England and English countryside influences in her work. Thanks for the giveaway.

I love the new artist Stuart mcalpine Millerand was lucky enough to go and see his latest private showing in London earlier this year(he is a friend of my best friend) so felt very lucky, and very out of place with loads of millionaires asking me which pieces I was interested in buying. Was also lucky to have a win for a meal in the savoy where he has been been chosen to be the artist in residence, the meal was lovely but I was more excited to see his lastest pieces. saying all that , my favourite artist is my daughter, she loves to create pretty art things out of what she can. xx

My 15 year old Granddaughter Jade Wood. She has already had some of her neoclassical work exhibited at the Hedon Art Exhibition earlier this year. Her drawings are very intricate and expressive, way way beyond her age. I'm very proud of her! xx

It has to be John Constable, he was probably the greatest English landscape painter of all time and, after winning a Gold Medal for his picture of the Haywain when it was displayed at the Louvre in 1824, is said to have influenced the French Impressionists.

I love the new artist Stuart
I love the new artist Stuart mcalpine Millerand was lucky enough to go and see his latest private showing in London earlier this year(he is a friend of my best friend) so felt very lucky, and very out of place with loads of millionaires asking me which pieces I was interested in buying. Was also lucky to have a win for a meal in the savoy where he has been been chosen to be the artist in residence, the meal was lovely but I was more excited to see his lastest pieces. saying all that , my favourite artist is my daughter, she loves to create pretty art things out of what she can. xx
