RIVERSIDE (oil)

After a year's absence, I rejoined my local art-club and took my oils with me to have a play. Did this one on an 8x6" panel and didn't finish it, but I'm just going to leave it as it is. I didn't learn anything from it, so I'll just leave it there and move on. It was a nice relaxing evening and nice to see some friendly, familiar faces.


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! :-)
