Painting


We have three painting groups, each meeting around twice a month. All groups welcome beginners and more experienced painters. Painting 3 (which includes drawing) is more aimed at total beginners and improvers,

 

Key details of the groups

Painting 1

A friendly painting group for all abilities, with a programme of activities. Help and advice given where necessary. Occasional workshops and demonstrations are organised.

 

Painting 2

Painters of all abilities are welcome to join this friendly group.  You can do your own
thing or join in some themed sessions. We also occasionally have demos and assisted
sessions and charge a small fee to cover these at the beginning of the u3a yea.

Here are examples of our work at the Unseen Artists exhibition held at the Maltings each year.

Here are some Examples of the group’s work

 

Painting 3

For complete beginners and improvers. We’ll look at some basic drawing and painting techniques, and have a go at landscapes, portraits, abstracts – lots of different ideas. Sessions will be structured for beginners with additional challenges for those with more experience. Mainly we’ll have fun!
