COMING UP AT CAG

Brendan Smith RI - watercolours

We are excited to welcome Brendan Smith RI to CAG on Wednesday 28th August at 7.30pm at the URC for a watercolour demonstration. 

Brendan combines looseness of execution with sound technique, watercolour being his favourite medium. He covers a broad range of subject matter and strives to create a sense of light and atmosphere.

He has exhibited for several years with the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour and was elected a member in 2022
