Exhibition:
An exhibition by the Gloucestershire based ‘Stitched Up’ textile artists’ group. They use textiles and other media to imaginatively portray the countryside and coast during the changing seasons.
Join the art group as they explore the mediums of charcoal and pastels, both different but very expressive art forms. Each member of the group will be able to explore the effects that can be achieved with the mediums and begin to produce their own mixed media drawing.
There is an optional £1 supplement for this event.
Join the art group as they listen to Cath Hodsman who will be exploring the wonderful world of insects, butterflies and moths. Cath has a passion for insects and will share her reasons why and the techniques behind her detailed interpretations.
