SUTTON BRIDGE ART GROUP - 2011
Sutton Bridge Art Group meets weekly on Wednesday afternoons at the Baptist Church in West Street, Long Sutton. The sessions last from 2pm-4pm. Membership is £10 per year, plus £2 per week, and £3 when a visiting artist attends. (Workshops are priced separately)
2011 will be another busy year for the Art Group: during most months of the year we will have a demonstration or workshop, either from a visiting professional artist or a member of our group.
The year has already begun well with a visit last week from professional artist Tim Fisher, from Leicester, who led a day's workshop in Pastels. Tim is a well known contributor to many art publications including The Paint and Leisure Painter magazines. He also runs painting holidays both here and abroad.
The programme for the rest of the year is varied. Some of subjects we shall be following this year are:
End of March we will be Painting Canal Art in acrylics, led by our 'boating' member Alan Manger.
April: Lisa Taylor will be leading a Pen and Ink session with a follow-up in September.
In both May and October, we shall be working in pastels with Peter Dalziel from Spalding.
Also in May group member, Judith Saxton, will lead with Having Fun with Watercolours.
June: The focus will be Still Life, provided by member, Kevin Dear. His subject is Exotic Flower and Seed Heads.
July: Art Group member, Jan Hume, will give an oil painting demonstration.
Also in July, a visit from Lincolnshire artist Debbie Mitchell has been arranged.
August: Watercolour artist Graham Timbrell will visit for a workshop
August also sees Art Group member, Lin Bradley, demonstrating the use of masking fluid in painting.
November: Art Group member, Mary Middleton, will show us how to depict realistic fabrics in acrylic paintings.
The group also has weeks when we do our own work. During the summer there will be a quiz and raffle day.
The group is very friendly and welcoming. We encourage new members to come along and join us or contact us via info@bridgewatch.org.uk
