AIMS: We are fortunate to have professional artists among our membership. Join a small, friendly, informal group, led by Paul Beamish, a retired teacher. The aim will be to help you enjoy art to the fullest, without fear of failure. This introductory drawing course will get you started and give you confidence. It will help to build your observational drawing skills as well as exploring and learning technique.

Stop worrying and start creating!
