Drawing Painting Watercolour

"Whenever I am scrolling on my phone, or out somewhere and I see something that I’d like to try, I snap a pic or take a screenshot. The minute I feel a bit lost for ideas, I only have to scroll back through my photos and there is more choice than you could ever imagine…."

Get to know Australian artist Samantha McMahon (@personallypennedandpainted), who specialises in watercolour and inks. From calligraphy to lifelike illustrations, she's got a keen attention to detail and a delicate touch when it comes to her designs. 

Samantha always reminds her students that ‘you will always think the person’s work who is sitting beside you is so much better than your own… well guess what, they think that of yours too’'. We think this is so inspiring and a testament to her teaching style!
