SUMMER WORKSHOPS

May I remind Members of the Society about forthcoming workshops run by Bryan Dawkins. Bryan has acted on the desires expressed by some of the less experienced painters in their questionnaire replies and is organising a series of classes/workshops, at Carnon Downs, between now and September, at £20 a time. So what is usually a Summer holiday blank in our schedule now offers something for you to do. (More workshops will be announced later in the year.)

*Wednesday 21 May: Drawing (Use of all drawing media from graphite pencils to pen and wash, including pastels. Includes an introduction to perspective.)Already gone, but may be repeated.

*Wednesday 25 June: Marine and Seascape Painting (How to paint the sea. boats and shoreline. Any preferred media.) Already fully booked, but may be repeated.

*Wednesday 23 July: An Introduction to Abstract Painting (Includes use of texture and special effects.)

*Saturday 2 August: Landscape Painting(How to paint trees, clouds, buildings, etc. Includes composition.)

*Wednesday 13 August: An Introduction to Oil Painting (Includes use of palette knife.)

*Wednesday 27 August: The Use and Understanding of Colour (A complete guide to the paints on your palette and how to use them effectively.)
