Bill TrusloveCold weather Paint-in with Bill. This should be a cosy and inspiring get-together to while away winter blues. We never stop learning and by painting with friends we are able to sort out our problems easier.

Lyle Dayman
Lyle is no stranger to our PASA members and his lively and informative demonstration promises to be another worth-while event. Today’s demo will show how you might combine a pen and ink drawing with watercolour, followed by pastel. The difference between this technique and watercolour and pastel is quite significant because the line work adds a totally new dimension to the picture.

Lyle Dayman demonstrated his technique of sketching in ink with a home-made bamboo pen, adding water-colour and then pastel.

Trevor Newman
Trevor is one of our Life Members and a Past President. He has won many awards and his work is hung in many countries throughout the world. He has conducted painting trips to Croatia and will tutor at our next painting camp in October at Melrose. Trevor has agreed to run a critique afternoon for us and we ask that you bring one or two paintings that you feel you need help with.
Part of growing as an artist is to develop a mental shield against what people think of our work. We need to develop confidence about getting our work out in the public. This critique will also serve as a learning day because you will find many of Trevor’s comments on other peoples’ work will possibly apply to your work too. Bring your notebook and pen. No-one is there to judge your work because, as a club we are all there to help each other.

Lyn Robins
Lyn is a well-known artist with many years of professional art teaching behind her. She has won lots of awards for her art and has agreed to give us a talk and tutorial about the pros and cons of working from photographs. She will also demonstrate by using an opache medium as a ground and painting with pastel over the top. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about your favourite medium.
