Review of our latest workshops,Talks & Events.
September 21st – Mark Fielding Figures in the landscape.
Members reported that this was a very good workshop if a little confusing to begin with! Mainly because Mark started the day with exercises in tone with collage, which hadn’t been in the workshop description. However, these were interesting and helped with the artwork during the afternoon. Mark was very supportive and spent a lot of time with the members who all said they had learnt so much!
October 12th – Julie Dunster – Alla prima flowers
As you can tell from this image, this was a very well organised and run workshop.
Members were asked to bring along a small posy of flowers in a jar. She advised on the set up and design and spent time on identifying tone.
Julie was very strict on colour mixing and gave lots of advice and tips along the way.
A little bit about our Society and our members…….
We are a group of enthusiastic artists who come together to take part in workshops, demonstrations and talks, as well as to exhibit and sell our works at our Annual Easter Exhibition. We also have three small groups who meet up to paint together, two groups at The Parish Room, Yealmpton and one group in The Revelstoke Room, The Village Hall, Noss Mayo.
The Society is committed to encouraging an interest in all genres of painting within the local community. We aim to include all abilities and would welcome new artists – both the young and the more mature, beginners and more experienced.
