11 members joined our happy band today to paint, three just for the fun and the rest for great artworks. we began with our usual coffee/tea and chat and then split up in various places in the town.
Ian C gave me a run for my money by producing six impressive drawings, he said it was difficult to get the perspective right, but I think he made a good job of it.
The first two are Josie's, a smashing gargoyle and side view of church; the 3rd one is Ian S a good perspective and I think he did the clouds last as it did start to rain towards the end of the day.
Sally P went to the Pennings and drew lovely shades in a pencil drawings and an effective watercolour of convolvulus
The first two are Jackie's watercolours done at the Pennings, what realistic cows. The last one is Lesley's which was radiant, she commented that using good ground and and creamy unison pastels made all the difference.
Judith had to go early but gave me her piece before she went so she said that it was not finished, I think it is very colourful
Frances said 'I only meant to do the gargoyle and add another but it all became a bit complicated! The middle one was some flintwork on the tower and the last was a sketch of church done from the viewing point on top of castle tower.
A selection of Avril's done in the town and the Pennings.
Diana was busy today and made a simply spectacular collage of the Town.
Carolyn said I am attaching 2 drawings of flowers in the garden which is looking wonderful just now.
