SHAKESPEARE’S Birthday

3 May, 2025 Halifax Art Society

25th April 2025 – This workshop, led by Lynda, was about drawing a character or scene from one of Shakespeare’s plays. Lynda brought in lots of pictures and books to help inspire us. We had a good morning creating Shakespearian artwork. The first picture below is of a poster advertising Macbeth and was painted by one of our members when she was just 16! amazing.
