Steve Hall

Steve Hall started painting and drawing at an early age and developed a love of the English landscape and a desire to capture its ever-changing moods and seasons on paper. This desire was left unfulfilled for many years as he pursued a teaching career in Further Education and eventually became an Assistant Principal for Gwent Tertiary College. Following early retirement, he became Chairman of Bath City Football Club and at the same time developed a successful property business.

In tandem with these activities, Steve was able to devote much of his time to painting and in particular watercolour.  Eventually this became his sole occupation and towards the end of the 1990's he became a full time painter, tutor and demonstrator.  Today he is a popular teacher at many venues around Britain and has developed a considerable following at Dedham hall.  He is the author of seven books, including two about his own work, the latest being 'Steve hall, My Way with Watercolour'.  He also produced five instructional DVD's and is a regular contributor to The artist magazine.

he has been much inspired by the work of such artists as Edward Wesson, Edward Seago, Jack Merriott and John Yardley.  His aim is to capture light and form by the most simple and fresh means possible and to pass on this approach to course members.  Steve likes to lead by example and his one-to-one teaching at Dedham hall is supported by demonstrations and short tutorials.  he makes no distinction between beginners and more experienced painters, believing all are deserving of his time and effort, whatever their ability.

In recent years, Steve has extended his teaching at Dedham hall to include Pastel and Acrylic tuition.  these mediums now form an important addition to Steve's portfolio of work and he is delighted to share these skills with those around him.

Wherever possible those attending May and August courses will go out into the surrounding countryside or coastline so that they may capture the essence of the scene plein air.  For courses held in March and October the work is studio based.

So, join Steve on a journey that is unending yet, for the determined traveller, one that can be so rewarding.

Andy Evansen

Andy Evansen

Signature member of AWS, PAPA, RRWS, TWSA

Andy Evansen's interest in art started in childhood, as he can't recall a time when he wasn't drawing.  He began painting watercolors in the mid 1990's as a change of pace from his career as a medical illustrator.  Choosing a 'style' was not difficult, as Andy was always inspired by the watercolor paintings of British artists Trevor Chamberlain, David Curtis, Ed Seago and John Yardley among others.

He found himself attempting to capture the landscape with the same economy of brushstroke, taking advantage of the luminosity of watercolors done in just a few washes.  In addition, he was impressed with the way those artists seemed to capture everyday scenes in such a way that revealed hidden beauty, subjects that many would simply pass by.

His work gained recognition after winning an international watercolour competition through American Artist magazine, appearing on their cover in 2005.  He's been featured in numerous publications since, and has become a sought-after workshop instructor who paints and teaches internationally.  He has become a signature member of the prestigious Plein Air Painters of America (PAPA) in 2012 and served as their president from 2015 - 2017.  His paintings have won numerous awards including the Bronze and High Winds Medals from the American Watercolor Society, and he was their demonstration artist for the 2018 Exhibition.  His love of painting on location also led him being a featured presenter at the 2014 and 2016 Plein Air Conventions and inclusion in the 2017 Quingdao International Masters Watercolor Plein Air Event.

Michal Jasiewicz

Michal has grown in an art-oriented family. During his architecture studies he started working as an architect beside his father. After a few years of strictly engineering work and occasional painting just for fun, he discovered that painting can be something serious. He made a few trips to European countries, started exhibiting his works in local galleries and got very positive feedback. Around 2010 he managed to organise several individual exhibitions and this was the moment when he started to perceive himself in terms of a person who is professionally involved in art.

Professionally active. A painter at the same time - treats painting as a hobby which, beside architecture, is a passion and a part of lifestyle. Contrary to his technical education perceives watercolour as a category of painting/art rather that graphics. Elements of architecture frequently appear in his works, though they are never represented directly: they are usually part of a broader cultural landscape. The coexistence of the natural landscape and human artifacts makes a remarkable material which enables the artist to create a half-realistic, half-poetic vision of the world, a vision as elusive as the changing light or seasons of the year. The resulting works are quite often inspired by a flash of light on a facade, shimmering surface of water, billowing sky rather than by a particular object.

At present he is a recognized watercolour artist invited to take part in prestigious events across the globe. Articles about him have been published, among others, i The Art of Watercolour (En.), Pratique des Arts (Fr.), Artysta i Sztuka (Pol.).

Many of his works are located in European, Chinese and American collections.
He runs workshops and live painting sessions.

He lives and works in his hometown with his wife and three children.

Amanda Hyatt

Amanda is an "alla prima" artist, painting "at the first go". She is instinctive and aims to create an expressive effect directly, immediately and spontaneously, to "achieve the final look in one session". This requires skillful manipulation of the brushes and the medium, working quickly, and with 30 years experience she is a master of alla prima watercolour.

She strives to create a sense of light and energy in her work which attracts the viewer via their immediate reaction to the play of tones, contrast of darks and lights, and her omission of unnecessary detail....making every brush stroke matter.

She aims to continue this lineage by transmitting this knowledge to students via her many teaching workshops. A combination of sensuality and interllect characterise this artist.

Amanda Hyatt was born and educated in Melbourne and qualified with a BSc Hons-Chemistry) and a Dip Ed.  She began her art career in 1984 and has since achieved the following

  1. Recognised as one of Australia's and the world's best watercolour artists who pushes the boundary of traditional watercolour.

Jem Bowden

 Jem Bowden is a 'plein air' watercolour landscape painter.

Inspired from an early age by the natural world and being outdoors, Jem began to paint the landscape as a child after discovering JMW Turner and then the French Impressionists. Later, his love of the British watercolour landscape tradition particularly influenced his development, with plein air painting becoming central to his practice.  he enjoys socialising with others around the subject of painting and is always wishing to 'demystify' the watercolour medium and related aspects of the visual world.  While Jem has won awards for his work he finds greater reward in helping others to enjoy painting, and simply being in the presence of nature with perhaps a chance to pass on the inspiration gleaned.
