ART….
Come along to our studio meetups to improve your art in a relaxed and social atmosphere (Champers or Waterfords and nibbles for those who imbibe), and under the guidance of a professional instructor. Complete beginners to experienced artists all welcome.
Our 2 hour meetups are held in a different location each time, usually outdoors to capture the subject of our drawings/paintings – you can sketch or photograph – and finishing in the studio.
Bring your own materials which can be anything from pencils or pastels, to watercolour or oils. If you are a complete beginner all you need to start are a couple of good drawing pencils, a rubber, and a drawing pad.
Who can attend? Open to all skill levels, from beginners to experienced artists. The instructor is there to help everyone.
The meeting point and full details for the day are sent in the booking confirmation email to the email address you provide at time of booking. Our meetups and classes are limited to a max of 8 people
