Her Showy Slipper Orchid was found in a local garden centre, and she was immediately inspired to paint the exotic looking blooms. She has done a fantastic job in capturing the form and delicate colours of the flowers, using some good green mixes on the leaves.<\/p>\n<p>Her second painting, Cornus canadensis or Bunchberry, was equally challenging. Despite the simple shape of the four petal-like bracts, the centre is actually a mass of tiny flowers. Sonia used a magnifier to paint the tiny details.<\/p>\n<p>The final piece is a study of a Gala apple and Bartlett Pear. This lovely piece shows her creativity and skill by using a combination of fine ink dissections with meticulous watercolour paintings.<\/p>\n<p>It has been wonderful to watch Sonia develop and improve her skills on the course, and the results are delightful!<\/p>\n<p>Written by Tutor Shevaun Doherty<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8458\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"847\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-1.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-1-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-1-300x392.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8459\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"964\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-202x300.jpg 202w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-300x446.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"648\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-2.jpg 648w, https:\/\/www.london-artcollege.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sonia-Utting-bot-2-300x267.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 648px) 100vw, 648px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sonia Utting, who is completing the Botanical Painting Diploma Course,\u00a0 chose some interesting and challenging subjects for her final diploma pieces.
