Creative adventures included painting both outdoors and in the studio painting the dramatic and scenic locations in the quieter regions of the Costa del Sol. With several trips to iconic whitewashed and unspoilt mountain villages in the region during the week this allowed all Paint Andalucia art holiday guests the wonderful opportunity to work directly out doors with the this versatile painting media.

The paintings everyone created with the Derwent Inktense Paint Pan Travel Set where rich in colour, multiple layered and full of depth. Above all they proved to be a joy to use and easy to create stunning paintings again and again.

Outside or in, Derwent Paint Pan Travel Set proved to be a real winner with everyone. Fab colours, permanent colours when dry to allow cleaner glazing, and so much more |
As a Derwent Associate Artist it was a privilege to teach everyone on the holiday so many different techniques with Inktense.
Following my regular demonstrations during each day both outdoors and in, everyone’s confidence with the media just grew. Creative techniques explored kept everyone fully focused with this inspirational landscape and exciting media and the work everyone created was really stunning.

Comments about the media were really positive too. Here's what some students had to say about Derwent Inktense Paint Pan Travel Set that each student was generously given by Derwent in support to use throughout their art holiday and take home to explore more too...
"The Derwent Inktense Paint Pan Travel Set seemed, on first appearance, to be one of those paint sets you might receive as a present from an aunt as a child. But, upon usage, I was pleasantly surprised to find how versatile it was. The colours are well chosen and the range you can produce by simple mixes was extensive. The mixing guide in the accompanying brochure was so very helpful and accurate - and this made a big difference to my artwork when using the set. It would be great if Derwent could somehow incorporate the chart into the box; in that way, the set really would be the perfect travel companion.
Once I had discovered and understood for myself how permanent the Inktense colours are when applied to paper, it was plain sailing. I thought the effect of various glazes on the painting surface was terrific. More satisfying than watercolour, I would say (though that may be down to experience and a narrow range of watercolour tubes in my possession).
Certainly, with the mixing guide, the set was pretty fool-proof. And I shall definitely be using it again. A huge thank you to Derwent for generously providing the set."

"What a great week that was. We both learned so many new skills and it was a pleasure to use the materials that you had generously provided. The inktense palate was a cute little box but surprisingly comprehensive in terms of both the colour range and mixing potential. We were both impressed by the strength of the colours. However as you demonstrated the versatility of the product was greatly extended by adding in other watercolours and gouache."
Jackie Potter and David McCallum
"Just completed a week’s painting holiday in Andalucia, and have been introduced to Derwent watercolour inkblocks. The colours are a nice combination and easy to work with, especially the purple. Their vivid strength adds a new dimension to what I may be painting in the future and I am really excited about the possibilities presented by Robert Dutton during this week."
Pam Wilson
"Delighted with the Derwent Inktense Paint Pan Travel Set. As a novice artist I obviously cannot compare it with any other medium but I really liked the colours, how well it mixes up to quite a strong colour and the great ways it can be used. RD made the medium very accessible and it seems to have a multitude of uses which I look forward to investigating further. Nattily sized, it will be easy to carry around but it strong enough colour to ensure a great result."
Lorraine Murdoch
A BIG THANKS to Derwent for generously sponsoring part of this year’s superb painting holiday in Southern Spain with a top quality Paint Pan Travel Set given to all.
Guests travelling home as far away as Canada and America most certainly will be taking home not only great Inktense paintings and happy memories, but lots of useful art techniques as well that will enrich their future painting experiences - all thanks to Derwent!

ReplyDeleteAt the time of school, I was much interested in paintings. Every time I buy colors kits and draw whenever I want and don’t even think about the object where I am painting. Even in the university period I also did this until I was in my first year. After passing my first year, I had a lot of university stuff to do and I was in search of any academic support that can help me to complete my assignment. Then I found services related to any type of assignment like best essay help UK for my essay assignment. It helped me a lot in assignments and now I am still doing painting and mostly buy new painting kits.
