Dear Members

Sally O’Neill – Playing with Pointillism

Sally’s workshop on Saturday 4^th March was all about how colours react using dots and dabs laid next to one another. This required a fair amount of patience and was quite challenging for those of us who are used to mixing our colours on a palette and not dotting the individual colours next to one another!

Sally was an excellent tutor and very helpful. There was a lot to learn, but it was good to try a different technique.

I’m sure everyone took something away from the day.  Here are photos showing some of our efforts…

Sally will be taking part in the Delamore Arts 23, with a workshop.

Andre Daniel (The Moth Man) is in the process of setting up a framing business in his studio at Yealmbridge.  Parking is easy and Andre assures me his prices will be very competitive.

He has promised me a flyer with all the details which I will include in the next newsletter.

That’s all for now,

Don’t forget to submit your entry forms for the exhibition.
