8th September 2023 – Due to a last minute change to the schedule, Carol stepped in to lead an interesting and enjoyable workshop. Carol gave hints and tips for drawing with white chalk, pencil or pastel on to black paper. She brought in examples to demonstrate the different techniques that can be applied.
1st September 2023 – unfortunately Lindsay Norman had to cancel her workshop due to ill health. Instead we had a free choice morning. A selection of photographs were provided for inspiration. Members produced a rich variety of artwork.
Halifax Art Society have been asked by the Calderdale Music Trust to host a drop in sketching workshop on Saturday, 9th September 1pm – 3pm, at the Old Courthouse, Blackwall, Halifax.
Please come along and meet this talented group of people who will show you how to draw musical instruments and maybe colour in a stained glass window template. In our fancy dress corner there are props and costumes ready for you – try on a top hat and waistcoat, a bonnet and parasol, a mop cap and shawl or any combination. Thank you to the Halifax Junior Light Opera for loan of the costumes. Colouring sheets and pencils are provided.
25th August 2023 – Thank you again to Ilona for organising today’s visit to the allotments where a few of us enjoyed sketching outdoors. Some members decide to stay at the Hall to paint/draw flowers, that were kindly provided by Janet and Carol, or to continue with unfinished artwork from last week.
