The Art Group is a combined group that allows members of several u3as to meet together to improve their painting and drawing techniques, The facilitator is a trained artist who enjoys imparting her knowledge to others who love to be creative. She runs several groups which meet monthly on different days of the week. Please contact the facilitator if you wish to join one of the groups and she will fit you in when she has a vacancy. No events will be displayed for this group as each member arranges their own classes.
The facilitator for this group is Brenda M.
I did a degree course in Art many years ago, and following a civil service career I am now happy to have returned to my first love of drawing and painting. I have designed a 10 month course covering the basics:
- What we put on
- What we put it onto
- How we put it on and take it off
I set a topic each month which enables the members to hone the skills acquired and explore new techniques that I introduce. The most important message is still
"Look and see"
I have members from four u3as in the area, organised into several groups. Each group meets once a month in my home. Previous experience is not essential, all you need is a willingness to learn and practice. I will ensure that new members cover the basics so that they will feel comfortable to work alongside existing members.
