Roger Murray Demonstration

30/11/2012

Members and non-members enjoyed a splendid demonstration of acrylic painting by Roger Murray on 23rd November. 

One of Roger’s passions is boats and the sea, and his starting point for the painting was a model boat. He showed us techniques for transforming this static, lifeless object into a painting which was full of movement and interest, and along the way we learned something about his early years painting in the South of France. 

See more of Roger’s work and life story from his website at www.rogermurray.co.uk.

Exhibition 2012 – Visitors’ favourites

23/11/2012

0 Comments

 
Our 2012 annual exhibition in the library attracted lots of visitors, and 188 voted for their favourite among the pictures on display. There was a wide range of opinions, and pictures of all different styles attracted multiple votes. The 3 pictures which received the most votes are shown here – it is very interesting to see just how varied they are in subject and in medium used.  As one visitor said, being able to vote is an opportunity to express appreciation to the artist, even though we may not make a purchase. Overall, 18 original pictures were sold during the exhibition.

  • Janet Rawsthorn – Ballet dancer (pastel)
  • Elaine Unthank – Liquid crystal (mixed media)
  • David Newcombe – Safely ashore (acrylic)
