It could be bad luck to say this, but drawers or would-be drawers are coming out of the woodwork!  Both Life Drawing and General Drawing are attracting numbers that haven't been seen in years.
Thanks to all who are giving their support.

'Morning Storm , Mt Compass' - Bill Truslove - Soft Pastel - 66 x 45

Congratulations Bill. 
Best Pastel (acquisitive) Clare Rotary Art Show 2024.
(I hope that Bill enjoys not just the kudos of the win, but perhaps also the satisfaction that might be available from the 'acquisitive = legacy' element..
I know I would!

We have all seen the light at Arts North!!

You could not miss seeing the light - in the studio ...

Hans has been working recently on his latest large format (1m x 1m approx) landscape (or perhaps more precisely 'water-scape').

Picture
'Cordola Lagoon' - Hans Koppan - oil on canvas
 This was done from a photo taken on a recent camping trip with his family.  Hans is extremely skillful in painting water and capturing the light.  He has a love of photography and uses all his own images for his wonderful landscapes, which are done in oil and generally on large stretch canvases.

Good Luck with this work , Hans!

A little while back, Arts North collaborated with Cindy Neurerling from Playford to organise a “art experience” for young people with disabilities at Judd House for a period of 12 months - on a monthly basis.  Stef (from Playford Friends Group) has just sent photos of some of the works - which have now been turned into greeting cards.

After some ten years of charcoal,  these last several sessions General Drawing has been playing with Pen n Wash.  Happily, most people have embraced the opportunity and we are all learning together!

Happy Days!

A New Year - and an old  'Souvenir' - 1995

1995

- Elizabeth Art Society was still located in Spruance Road; Judd House was occupied as 'YWCA House' - with sheds behind the house occupied by 'Elizabeth Potters'.

This terracotta platter (450mm approx) was 'thrown' in 1995 by (the late) Charlie Romeo and was glazed, decorated and fired by Pat (Patricia) Low, both members of Elizabeth Potters.

The platter's right hand side (just the very RH corner of the verandah) was spotted peeking out from behind other keepsakes at Pat's place.
Having drawn the same view numerous times, I said, without doubt,
"I bet I know where that is!"

Yep!

Two such platters were produced - one for Charlie and one for Pat.

Life Drawers - last session before Christmas '22.

A huge quantity of nibbly bits .. and a chocky (and ?whiskey?) fudge from Jo that might have speeded someone to heaven - in more ways than one!
Glynis and June went over the top (of their housekeeping budget) on cheeses n stuff!  Thanks all.  A couple of regulars couldn't make it - commitments to flood relief.  Cheers to them.  Merry Chrismas!

Two years of Covid notwithstanding,
Life Drawing is going well!
Last Saturday was 'standing room' only - made more significant yet with a very warm welcome extended to Carrie (very talented) and Pieter Z (talented, returning  to Arts North - and now commuting from Walkers Flat)!
And a new model too!  In fact two new models?... Have a look at Carrie's and Pieter's works and see what you think (spot the 'ring -in'?)
