Diana's Weekly Blog Post

Dear Fellow Members

The Lifers are becoming insatiable!  Ian has arranged for a session for the May bank holiday, (Monday the 2nd ) at 10.30 am - 1 pm in the gallery.  This allows those who work for a living, or refuse to join the traffic jams, a chance to spend two and a half hours in peace and quiet whilst honing their skills.  I will be away for the weekend (what again you may say) so cannot join in, and just as my attempts are improving.  As it is a bank holiday costs will be slightly higher than usual, consequently, fees will be  £10 for members and £12 for everyone else.  If you would like to come along, or would like further information, contact Ian on 01367 860073.

If there are any of the workshops you may like to attend, don't forget to contact the gallery in plenty of time.  Gill and Kathy work hard at setting up an interesting programme, arranging for professional artists to come along and impart their skills, but of course it depends on the number of participants to make it worthwhile.

Also on the 2nd of May, in the afternoon, Martin is helping us with "Plein Air" work at Woodstock.  With the weather improving (by the way it was sunny and hot in Sicily but I don't suppose you want to know that!) you may like to take advantage of the beautiful scenery and expert help on offer.

Cheers

Diana

Dear Fellow Members

You may have noticed our deliberate mistake in the What's On Guide.  Just to keep you awake we put the date for the Members' Social as April 10th.  Of course it should read the 14th so keep next Thursday free and join us for a relaxed and sociable evening.  Unfortunately I cannot make it from Sicily!

Life drawing is going from strength to strength with Ian organizing bank holiday morning sessions and Roger sourcing new models to keep the Wednesday evening Lifers on their toes.  Keep the bank holiday Monday, the 2nd of May, penciled in for a 10.30 am session in the gallery.  This morning Loraine was as lovely and professional as usual.

Esther and Chris are exhibiting in the Vesey room until the end of April.  If you haven't been yet, do go.  They might give you inspiration to make the most of our connection with the Vesey room which allows our members to exhibit free of charge (subject to 25% commission for WOA much needed funds!)

There may still be a chance of joining John Somerscales Drawing with Confidence on Monday 11th.  I desperately need his guidance but will be away. 

Keep drawing
