The Co-Swatch sessions are FREE Monthly Zoom meetups, where you’re invited to show up with any of your materials and simply swatch, play, and chat about swatching and playing! Perhaps you have something forgotten at the back of your supplies cupboard? Or you have been gifted something that needs cracking open? Bring it along to this session and get stuck in. Or simply join in while you work - everyone is welcome. It is a chatty, light, chance to play.
I will share a recording after the event, so if you miss it you can still listen back and enjoy the studio chat as company while you work.
➡️ This thread forum will be where I will update each monthly event sign up info. ➡️ This will also be the place where we can all add swatch related inspiration and references. ➡️ The SWATCH SHARE THREAD is open to everyone to share your swatches post-session.
I’ll kick off the forum thread with some of the amazing references that were shared last month.
See you there!

There are some great links and comments in these posts, so do check them out!
Parul's approach to painting is both dreamy and down to earth. Her swatches in her notebook are works of art in and of themselves. I love her gentle approach to colour and painting.
A wonderful piece from Lena @poemsaboutyou on the joys and benefits of swatching https://poemsaboutyou.com/blogs/news?mc_cid=7a54bc33c5&mc_eid=2a9ba2e5c9
THAT's a brilliant article!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Looks great Raj! I’ll use this as an opportunity to take a break from writing substack and social posts and get my sketchbook out!
Yeayyy! that’s just what it’s for - time to mentally switch off and just play 🎨
