Mini Workshop March 2024
The clothed life-drawing mini workshop was well attended this month, with the added variety of different models to draw.
This, combined with coffee breaks and a chance to chat and see other members' work meant the afternoon went smoothly and was enjoyed by all. The results, whether by the more experienced or those new to life-drawing were excellent - just a few of which you can see below.
The summer months offer our day-long workshops with professional artists, but rest assured the mini workshops will return in the autumn. Sarah D
With the still-life subject reflecting festive celebrations, and a classic Poinsettia to paint or draw, the afternoon was set. An enthusiastic group created excellent art in many mediums and styles, as you can see from from some of the examples below. An enjoyable, social afternoon away from the hassles and demands of everyday life - perfect! Sarah D
November Workshop - Christmas Decorations and Pyrography
A relaxed and fun afternoon was had by all at the mini workshop on Saturday 18th November. A Christmas decoration themed still-life was provided to inspire members for the up-coming art competition at the AGM. And the pyrography session was very popular, with all of us managing to create a piece of art to take home. Sarah D
Summer Workshop with Ria Cornall, July 2023
The acrylic landscapes workshop with Ria Cornall was a relaxed, social and fun day.
With inspiring ideas and money saving tips she taught the foundations of landscapes in such a way that she dispelled many fears of tackling a potentially complicated image.
Lots of individual encouragement and gentle guidance throughout the day allowed all members to achieve a picture to be proud of.
The finished results were excellent and with no picture the same, reflected each person's individual style. SD
