11th August 2023 – Thank you to Ilona for arranging this day for members to visit Godfrey Road Allotments to do some sketching. Many photos were taken and members had the opportunity to sketch and paint outdoors. Back at the Hall, members had the choice of drawing and painting an assortment of fruit, flowers and vegetables.
4th August 2023 – A visit was organised to sketch at the All Saints churchyard and garden. The weather was rather wet and drizzly, not ideal for outdoor painting. A few of us ventured out to the church to look at the gardens and cemetery, which was extremely interesting. Those who were at the Hall were busy painting flowers or working on previous subjects.
Last week most members had completed their mobile, so today members decided to complete unfinished artwork for the Halifax Heritage Bus or Calderdale Industrial Museum exhibition.
Following on from Paul Talbot-Greaves demonstration the previous Friday, members enjoyed having a go at painting a landscape using acrylics. Here are pictures of work in progress.
