Last Friday the Halifax Art Society attempted Brian’s challenge to paint a floral bouquet. Six paintings will later go on display for a year at Overgate Hospice, but they will not be for sale. Our Spring Exhibition in Hebden Bridge has now finished with three paintings sold. Not many of our Sunflower canvases sold, but we will keep advertising them and will hopefully have another venue soon to sell them.

Some pictures from our workshop last week
Fruit and veg
The ‘Fruit and Veg’ Workshop at the Friday meeting of the Halifax Art Society was run by Carol Pope.
As well as providing some beautiful fruit and vegetables for us to draw and paint, Carol showed us some lovely examples of her own work to inspire us.
Some excellent work was done, in many different styles, and we were, of course, able to eat the subjects of our artwork afterwards!
Seascapes and others
Big sky and sea
Big sky and sea was the subject in the Halifax Art Society last Friday for an acrylic workshop, led by Hebden Bridge artist Julia Ogden. Members tackled the subject with gusto!
On the 26th April there will be a workshop ‘Roses in Bloom’, led by Janet Gledhill.
Included in our new exhibition in the Tourist Information centre in Hebden Bridge is the opportunity to buy a sunflower canvas for £20. The money raised will go to support the Macmillan Unit at the Calderdale Royal Hospital. Can you help us reach our goal of £1000?
