At the end of March we took time to look at our own hands and the shapes they make in a workshop of ‘Busy hands’ led by Lynda Thomas. We looked at a variety of reference material, books and wooden mannequin models as well as our own digits.
Lynda encouraged us to use different media and look at our hands in a different way.
On Friday 12th November, our member Jenny Reid led the Halifax Art Society in a workshop dealing with rubbish in a different way before the recycling. It was astonishing to see how skilfully members created pieces of art within two hours.
HAS members kept busy during lockdown, take a look at some of the works produced by our artists!
