We will be meeting for the first two Thursdays in December and, after the Christmas break, reconvene on 12 January 2012.
On 1 Dec we will be having fun doing wacky drawing (click on the Programme tab above for more details.) Bring cheap paper, pencils & charcoal ... and an open mind, which goes without saying, of course.
Juliet has suggested that on 8 Dec we have an art-and-social evening, with mince pies and seasonal drinks. Details to follow soon.

Tonal studies theme
It was full house on Thurs 3 Nov for our Tonal Studies theme, led by Beryl. The subject is a still life of favourite objects.
This first evening was concerned with getting the composition right, using thumb-nail sketches. You will see from the photos below how enthusiastically members approached the challenge.
Next week we are developing the subject in black and white on grey paper.

Thanks to Juliet for the photos
