DUNSCAR DUSK

This was done with an 8x6" pochade and a palette knife. Paints used were Artisan Oils. I must admit to liking this and I have, in fact, mounted and framed it. The original looks FAR better than this photo.

GLASS APPLE

Did this one at the art-club last Friday. First time I've been there for AGES! Used a palette knife. Not very good, but at least I painted something!

Our Own Art-Club!

Each Friday we go to the local Art-Club in Horwich. It's a thriving club with a broad range of people of all ages and skill-levels. Apart from the regular painting sessions, we have many professional artists visiting us to demonstrate their skills and to run workshops.

But sometimes, it's nice when just a few friends get together mid-week too, and so here we are in Simon's "studio", benefitting from the skill and experience of his father, Brian Waddington. It looks a bit cramped in there, but we were just huddled together to fit in the photo frame :-)



And you can drink beer in this club! :-)
