In an interesting session led by Art Society member Hilarie Stelfox, we had a go at doing different kinds of Japanese painting – landscapes, flowers, animals, and beautiful ladies. This was something new for most of our members, and we had a very good time learning new techniques.

Member’s choice
Last week, quite a few members of the Halifax Art Society came together although the announced demonstration couldn’t take place. Artists don’t run out of ideas easily as the pictures show.









Change to 7th January meeting
Due to unforeseen circumstances, this Friday’s demonstration by Paul Talbot-Greaves has been postponed until a later date in spring.
Instead, we will be having a “member’s choice” morning, where you can bring along any work you may wish to complete from previous workshops, or a piece that you are otherwise working on. If nothing comes to mind, just bring yourself with a piece of work to share.
We are not imposing any restrictions on members wishing to join us on Friday, but if you feel safer please bring your masks along. Tables will be spaced as usual and hand-sanitiser is provided.

Winter watercolours
Last Friday the Halifax Art Society came together to work in watercolour under the guidance of our member Carrie on the theme ‘Winter’. We were sitting well apart or even with a mask, if members felt safer that way. It is amazing to see the different ideas and wonderful pieces of art emerging in such a short time.
