Thanks again to all those of you who have submitted works, some of you many times each month, you have all kept the page going. I’m still including works from non-members because, […]

Unbelievable to think it’s August and we’re five months into our ‘Isolation Gallery’.   The amount, and the standard of work, that’s been sent in shows the enduring talent and creativity of the group that is Walsall Society of Artists.  THANK  YOU.   With venues opening up again and then new lockdowns being put in […]

Didn’t think our on-line Isolation Gallery would be on going for so long. No worries though, there is plenty of talent within the society to keep it going for many months yet. It’s so good to see new people coming along, interested in the society and eager to show us their work. Thank you to […]

We will let you know when they are up and running again. The award […]

John Shakespeare, Thursday 12th march at St Martin’s Church Hall, 7.30pm. Having looked at John’s website I think we are in for an exceptional evening on Thursday of this week. I’ve taken this information from his site. ‘I went to Birmingham College of Art and Design 1963-68 and emerged with a Dip AD in Graphic […]

‘Gravity Painting’ Old and new members couldn’t fail to be impressed by our first demonstration of 2020. Catherine Beale, who’d travelled up from Bath to be with us, certainly began our year in fine style with her instructive and inspiring demonstration.             From the comments made afterwards she had certainly […]

Our 2020 year is begun with Catherine Beale demonstrating for us.       I met Catherine at a small art/craft show in Bath just over a year ago and I was immediately struck by the way she used colour so vibrantly. Catherine is an experienced portrait painter and artist […]
