February 25th 2021 marks the first anniversary of the ‘Society of Painters in Water-Mixable Oils’. Much has happened in the first year seeing the membership growing to 78 with more top companies and artists getting involved. The future is exciting though progress has been held back by the arrival and persistency of the Corona Virus. This will hopefully have less and less of an impact on daily life as we move deeper into the spring and the Vaccination programme will have the positive outcome that we are all hoping for. We have great plans for the future and hope that our membership gradually increases as it becomes more well known.
We are introducing painting holiday options and I will keep you all posted via the Society website… https://spwmo.org.uk/holidays/7-night-painting-holidays-with-murray-william-cole-ince-2022/ and here on my website.

‘Society of Painters in Water-Mixable Oils’
Over the years I have introduced hundreds of students to water-mixable oils and the joy that working with them gives and thought that 2020 would be the perfect year to launch an information, teaching and learning platform for all those professional and amateur artists who have discovered the amazing medium that is water-mixable oil paint or are thinking about trying them! So I and some of my fellow professionals are proud to have founded and present to you the ‘Society of Painters in Water-Mixable Oils’ and cordially invite you to join our ranks.

Oficially opening on Saturday November 9th 2019, The Walled Garden Cafe owned by my wife Cynthia and myself and managed by our chef daughter Laura. Apart from the great breakfasts, lunches, afternoon teas and naughty cakes you would expect from a good cafe as the name suggests, there’s a nice big garden area which in the late spring and summer will host various art exhibitions and painting workshops. In the meantime it will play host to a number of art workshops, the first of which will take place on the evening of the 19th of November from 18.30 to 20.30 the theme of which is ‘Paint a Christmas Card in Gouache’, all materials supplied and will include tea or coffee and a slice of cake all for £20 per person. With my guidance you will create your own Christmas Card which you could have copied and produced as cards in time to send to special friends and family. Places are limited so if you are interested you will need to e-mail me to book a spot, if you happen to be unlucky and the places have already been filled don’t despair if there is a demand we will simply run some more over the following week or so.

It was a great surprise to find that I had been awarded first place for my painting of ‘Quarr Abbey Ruins’ in the ‘Light, Space and Time’s’ Landscape Painting of the year competition for 2019, especially as I had previously won it in 2016. There were 572 entries from 22 different Countries.
