Apologies for being a bit tardy writing about last month’s demonstration, I’ve been too busy painting.   In April Phil Biggs travelled all the way from Lincolnshire to demonstrate his watercolour technique. Phil, a self-taught artist, re-created a Lake District landscape which he had painted many times using a limited palette of seven Winsor and […]

MARK WARNER. For various reasons I was in two minds not to attend this months demonstration, but I’m so glad I did. Mark’s demo was so interesting and informative. For the full two hours he talked about the work in progress, his use of blue pastel paper, his limited palette, his colour mixing and the […]

The society has just closed it’s successful exhibition, ‘A New Beginning’ at the Granary Galley, Weston Park. Photographs of the exhibition will be posted within the next few days.     I’m hoping the lifting of restrictions is the reason for the very slim pickings for this monthly gallery.

We have a ZOOM committee meeting next week so maybe I’ll be able to  relay some positive news after that.   Our exhibition, ‘A New Beginning’ is now open at the Granary Gallery, Weston Park, until 30th June.

I shall post any pictures of creative works that members or friends of the society want to send in, in this format, rather than the daily facebook page, so please send in when you can. We have a little diversification this month […]
