It’s all gearing up for the fresh new term this Wednesday evening at 6.30-8.30pm at The Beech House in Solihull!

With more leaflets today at The Castle Galleries, Whitewall Galleries, and Eaton Fine Art I look forward to greeting new students, go to the Contact page and drop me a line 📝 Website: http://www.artsandcraftsv.com to reserve your place 😀

This term is a special short 5 weeks before everyone goes on their well deserved summer holidays! We will then start the following academic year on 12 September for the normal term duration of 10 weeks

Come and join us in the stunning new Function Room behind the bar in The Beech House this Wednesday at 6.30pm 🎨

It’s crazy to think that in just under a month I will be starting the short 5 week summer art class! Where did this academic year go? The current students are doing so well and I look forward to seeing their completed acrylic painting 🎨

The Easter holidays have drawn to a close and Spring is finally underway! So, we need to get cracking too 😀

TUESDAY CLASS

Images of landscapes at the ready, drawing and painting equipment, drawing board, apron, sketchbook.

WEDNESDAY CLASS

Drawing equipment plus charcoal, sketchbook, paper, painting paper or canvas board or other, table cover and apron! Images of landscapes – do your images clearly show you colours, lighting, is it visually interesting/hold your attention for long? You won’t need any paint till next week.

FRIDAY CLASS

It’s time for decoupage! Plan to create a gift box to pop a present in to give to someone. Pva glue, applicator, colourful magazines, wrapping paper, photos, images, scissors ✂️ sketchbook for planning, pencils. Table cover plus newspaper to protect tables.

Other classes: no prep needed.

See you soon 🎨

With the sun suddenly shining today it was a real opportunity to get out and about! In the centre of Birmingham today everywhere seemed to have young birds perched in unusual places, the House of Fraser window blinds outside seemed a favourite for the young Starlings!

This is a wake up call for me to get cracking and organise weekend dates for our On-location drawing and painting stand alone workshops! Keep a look out for the dates on the website 😀

Spring is finally here and what better way to enjoy the warmer weather than to join a new group! Pick up your pencils and paint and come and join us for the new term! It’s a great way to relax after work, make new friends and enjoy the lovely surroundings whist sketching and painting 🖍
