The Art Group meets twice monthly. Members are suitably spaced, we manage to create interesting art and have a good catch up.
We are all at different levels, from absolute beginners to those who have exhibited, and this mix of abilities gives each of us the opportunity to learn about and to discuss painting and drawing. Some members prefer drawing with charcoal and others with pencils. Some of us prefer watercolours and others like pastels or acrylics. It is always interesting to see the different styles and techniques and to chat over a cup of tea.
The contribution from those attending is £3 each to cover the cost of the hiring of the room.
