We are excited to welcome Fiona Hooper to CAG on Wednesday 25th September at 7.30pm at the URC for a demonstration of pet portraiture in oils.
Wherever possible Fiona likes to work directly from the subject, but, when this is not possible, her sketches, photographs, and memories act as the inspiration for her paintings.
Fiona is an accomplished professional portrait artist, having completed many successful commissions of both people and animals. Her work has won awards and critical acclaim and can be found in collections both in the UK and internationally.
We are very much looking forward to our upcoming Workshop, using alcohol Inks - Tracey will be demonstrating colour mixing, layering and other techniques in this exciting medium.
The Workshop will be held at the URC in Caterham Valley and run from 10am to 4pm. It is open to both members (fee £35) and non-members (fee £40)
Bookings should be made by emailing your details to secretary here, including your payment method.
We look forward to welcoming Jake Winkle to CAG on Wednesday 23rd October at 7.30pm at the URC for a demonstration of pen & wash.
Known for his dramatic wildlife and horse racing watercolours, Jake Winkle captures both of these qualities as he paints subjects from overseas and also nearer to his home, in Dorset. His enthusiasm for watercolour painting is infectious and inspired as he constantly searches for new and exciting ways to render his subject, direct and uncluttered - with passion and energy!
