CAROL UDALE

Watercolour

l left Manchester Art College in 1978 to work as a self employed potter in Chester and then Mold, North Wales for 19 years.

Too many years of cold wet clay and a change was needed so I went back to my love of drawing and painting as well as training to teach in further education. 

​

My classes have evolved from the more craft based to now purely watercolours, drawing and a few other techniques thrown in to keep my students on their toes! 

​

My own style of work has also evolved but there is a trace that still goes back 40+ years during my potting years - lots of detail in the lines, now superimposed in my take on trees, flowers and landscapes. 

​

My guilty pleasure is to draw cartoons of everyday occurrences of which I shall hang a few here as well.  

​

I take part in the Art Trails in Cilcain Village Hall (Cilcain Artisans) each September with 4 other art/craftspeople. I am also actively working on establishing an arts centre for Flintshire in Mold after seven years chairing the Flintshire Visual Arts and Crafts Network.
