SUMMARY:Saturday Portrait Club
DESCRIPTION:Saturday portrait club is a test session to see how many members are interested in getting together to paint at the weekend. If it’s successful we will aim to run more sessions in 2027. \nThis event is aimed at making society events more accessible to our working members but is open to any  LBAS member who may wish to attend. \nWe will have a live model and members may draw or paint as they wish. We will supply tables and chairs however members will need to bring their own materials/equipment and a means of protecting the floor and/or table from any splashes. \nIf you use an easel we encourage you to bring a standing one to help maximise space. However you are very welcome to bring a desk easel if that is what you use/have or whatever you normally support your work with. \nTea and Coffee will be provided as well as a bit of music. \n  \nFree Member only event \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Demonstration  by Artist Gary Spencer - How to critique a painting
DESCRIPTION:After an extensive education in art culminating in his time at Goldsmiths Gary has become an accomplished painter and educator and exhibits across the Uk. \nGary is well known for the depth of his art history knowledge too but he will join us for this Demo to discuss how we can critique our own work. \nTo that end.. \nPlease bring a painting along which you are happy for Gary to critique and bring out the fundamental things which make a good painting. This doesn’t need to be your ‘best work or a finished work’. Gary has an encouraging manner\, so don’t be frightened to bring along a painting you’re struggling with. \nThe session is designed to be a friendly and educational ! He has been invited back to repeat this exercise so it’s one to look forward to and definitely worth participating in. \nFree to members Guests welcome £6.00 at the door \nVenue TBC ( likely Lindslade School see below) \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Drawing in the Nave
DESCRIPTION:This is always a most enjoyable day of painting and sketching in our wonderful All Saints Church grounds. We meet at 10am at the entrance and then have a good wander round\, and members eventually pick their spot with a good view to sit and sketch the day away. Officially it’s from 10 am – 2pm\, but you are most welcome to stay a bit longer of course. The Church and surrounding grounds are absolutely beautiful\, and any pictures or artwork that you produce are FREE to submit to our Annual Exhibition. If you haven’t been to All Saints’ Church before\, please join us. \nNot only that\, you can familiarise yourself with the layout of the church. Committee members are on hand to answer any questions you have about our annual church exhibition and the cafe on the premises serves excellent tea\, coffee and cakes. \nDrawing in the Nave replaces Art Together in September. \nWet weather programme is we will still meet up at the entrance and then go inside the church. \nDon’t forget to bring your sketching/painting gear of course. See you there.

SUMMARY:Urban Sketch Day
DESCRIPTION:On June 6th LBAS is going to be at the market again. This time with our own gazeebo and our own tables\, celebrating our club! We will have leaflets for people to pick up with lots of info about actually how great we are…and what we get up to on the regular! Do join us\, bring a satchel with your art supplies in it and come paint urban scenes. We could have little groups dotted all over town. The plan is to turn up at the tent\, decide where you want to sketch or paint and then off you go! We are also going to put on a wee community event for anyone to participate in\, something fun and probably messy! It might involve postcards! More details soon.

SUMMARY:Artists Demonstration - Bridget Tomkins - Life Drawing
DESCRIPTION:Clothed life/figures drawing\n\nBridget Tompkins is a well established local artist who specialises in both life drawing and watercolour painting\, embracing a variety of subjects. \nShe is known for her trademark loose and energetic style\, using bold washes of intense colour which are often splashed across the paper. These random effects then become an essential part of the composition. Bridget strongly believes in trying to capture the ‘essence’ of the subject or scene rather than concentrating on exact detail. This method is used to convey freshness and light by leaving plenty of areas unpainted. \n\nShe also teaches life and clothed drawing with watercolour washes.\n\n\nFree to members. Guests welcome pay £6 on the door.
