Have you ever thought about how much fun you could have learning to paint, or trying out some new techniques? Well you can pursue that dream in the ever-popular Thursday Art Group who meet every Thursday morning at Holt. With moments of laughter, keen discussions and sometimes absolute silent concentration, this is the group for you. We have a wonderful variety of media users including watercolour, acrylic, oil, pastel, pen and ink.

At 9.30am sharp everyone meets, armed with bags of enthusiasm and embarks on their morning, venturing into the world of inspiration and exasperation! There is always someone to help - with a friendly critique and encouragement accompanied by plenty of laughter. Perhaps we go home with a new masterpiece, perhaps not, but it is for sure that we will all be back next week for more!

Since the introduction of "self-led taster sessions" we have enjoyed printmaking; tissue, glue and acrylic on canvas; pen and ink techniques; and acrylic on black canvas.

The summer weather has allowed some meetings to be spent "en plein air" in a beautiful garden close by.

Please have a look at our gallery before you go and contact Keith for a chat if you would like to join us. Thank you.

To avoid disappointment please do not attend any events, group meetings or monthly meetings as a visitor unless you have, in advance, contacted the event organiser / group leader or Membership Secretary (for monthly meetings), Thank you.
