EVENTS
Club Meetings are held on the last Wednesday of each month at the Public Hall in Budleigh Salterton starting at 10.00am. They include the latest Club news, talks and demonstrations by guest speakers, occasionally followed by workshop sessions in the afternoon. The club is open from 9.45am so that members can chat and socialise before the meetings starts. Coffee and tea is provided at a break halfway through the demonstration. We usually finish at 12pm but may sometimes go over this time depending on the stage of the demonstration.
There are also other workshops, details are below, booking for these sessions will be opened nearer the time of the event.
We shall also be holding art courses throughout the year and other social activities.
If you have any queries regarding our events, please get it touch via email at bsac2017@gmail.com
NOVEMBER MEETING
Our November meeting this year will have a Christmas theme to it! Along with mulled wine and mince pies, we will be letting members have some fun creating their own Christmas card/cards!
If you would like to participate there will be tables set up ready with items for you to make use of.
We will provide everyone with blank cards of varying sizes, colours and apertures along with envelopes, Christmas collage bits, embellishments, glue sticks, small pieces of watercolour paper etc.
But please feel free to bring your own ideas and objects to use - especially paints or pencils for illustrating your cards if you want to do it that way!
Lisa Murdoch has also kindly offered to have a table for doing relief printing on cards and will bring some templates she has made already for us to make our own Christmas designs to print with! She will show us what we need to do if we want to make a card in that way. It’s a fairly quick process so there will be a chance for many of us to have a go at some point during the morning.
Please don’t feel obliged to take part in the card making - you are very welcome to just come along to the meeting and have look at everyones ideas whilst sipping your mulled wine or cup of tea!
This is the last meeting of the year as we will not be having one in December, so it will be great to have bit of fun before we meet again in January for Jake Winkle's demonstration. Thank you all for your support this year at the demos and the workshops, it is very much appreciated. You don't need to sign up to this- just turn up to club meeting!
JAKE WINKLE DEMO AND WORKSHOP PUBLIC HALL 29.01.25
Our demonstrator for January is the very well respected watercolour artist Jake Winkle. Jake believes that watercolour paintings should be bold and translucent! Known for his dramatic wildlife and horse racing watercolour he 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!
His morning demonstration will be followed by an afternoon workshop at the Public Hall. Sign up via the website using the reference JW.
