ASOC WORKGROUP DETAILS
PASTEL EXPLORERS Mondays 10:00 am to 2:00pm
A workgroup for all budding or experienced pastellists. Participants will be free to choose their own subject matter or to work from a common theme selected by the group. We will also use the opportunity to combine pastel with other media. This is an opportunity to really play with this exciting painting tool, and to learn why those who already love pastel become so passionate about it. For all information contact Jenny Robbins on 02 62901948 or email:- MailTo: jlrartist@grapevine.com.au
Suggested starting date early November.
FACE AND FIGURE Tuesdays 10.00am-1.00pm
This workgroup has its focus on portraits, and life drawing and painting. Working with the human figure and face could be considered the best and most challenging way of developing and refining your ability to see. In any medium, and for any skill level. Members may attend on a casual basis (if there is room left in the group) which will alternate between weeks of portrait and the nude. Cost is the regular $2, plus $7 for portrait or $10 for life model. Contact Maureen Lawrentin if you are interested: maureen.lawrentin@gmail.com or 6254-4179 (evenings best).
FUN WITH PRINTMAKING Tuesdays 1.30-4.30pm
The newest workgroup has a focus on the excitement of creating prints. We will be able to experiment with lino and monoprinting using simple equipment without the need for a printing press. We will see where our experiments take us! There are still spaces available if you would like to join us. Please contact Margaret Flanagan, m.m.flanagan@bigpond.com or 6286 5647 or 0418 263 492
WAYS WITH WATERCOLOUR Wednesdays 10.00am-1.00pm
Anne Wright convenes a group concentrating mostly on watercolours. Both beginners and advanced artists are welcome. Members are free to choose their own subject matter or can accept a suggested subject or method in which to work. The idea is to learn and share and enjoy the diversity of each other’s talents. We may on occasion take to working out in the countryside or taking in an exhibition. If you are interested in joining this group, please contact Anne on 6242 9394 or by email annehilda.wright@gmail.com
ALL COMERS Thursdays 9.30am-12.30pm
For all members. Beginners to experienced artists are very welcome. All mediums and subjects are covered in this workgroup. Help and constructive advice is freely available. This is a very friendly group which is already very well established. All are welcome. If you are interested in joining this group please contact Diane Alder, 6288 8862
FLORA & FAUNA Thursdays 1.00pm-4.00pm
Our group welcomes members who like to draw/paint any kind of animal, bird etc, and any kind of flora. So if you like to draw or paint any of these, in any medium, please join us. We might have some excursions to the National Botanic Gardens, the birdpark at Gold Creek, Black Mountain for orchids, the Zoo and elsewhere at times. If you are interested in joining this group please contact Vivien Pinder 6242 9699 or vpinder@homemail.com.au.
ABSTRACT AND EXPERIMENTAL Fridays 10.00am-3.00pm
Open to all beginners and experienced artists with a spirit of adventure. The idea is to support and encourage each other as we explore, in any medium, style or subject, contemporary and post modern painting. We will be experimenting and borrowing from or questioning the traditional, breaking the rules, following intuition and generally having fun. Members will not have to stay all day: we are allowing five hours so we can really get into the mess making and still enjoy a leisurely lunch chatting about our ideas and works in progress. If you are interested in joining this group please contact Patricia Wheatstone, 6248 8006 or 0401 916 113 or tricia.su@webone.com.au.
SATURDAY SESSIONS Saturdays 1.30-4.30 pm
For all members of all skill levels. This group is aimed at artists who have limited free time and will appreciate the time, space and support from fellow artists to follow their artistic passions. This is a very flexible group, so bring along whatever medium suits you, and work on whatever subject you like! Occasionally we will use this time to paint out in the landscape (weather permitting). Please contact Katie Volter (a/h only) on 0419760681 or katie.volter@hotmail.com to register your interest in this group.
General enquiries about workgroups can be made to the Workgroups Coordinator, Tim Hardy, 62587178 or timahardy@hotmail.com
