A busy weekend!
Tomorrow I will be opening my studio
doors to the Scalloway community-just in case they were wondering what
I've been up to when they see me on the shore making funny circles and
picking up litter.
Open studio from 1-5PM, Saturday April 26
April 27
I am honoured to be invited to present the following session!
A Wild About Art event -
‘In the Studio’
with Canadian Artist Jan Yates
Sunday, April 26
2-4 pm
‘The Booth’
Scalloway, Shetland
Ever wonder what artists do on a residency? It is an opportunity to
explore new ideas in new surroundings stimulated by new experiences. Jan
Yates is primarily a plein air painter who is inspired by Shetland’s
dramatic land and sea as well as its unique culture and history. She
will discuss her residency at ‘the Booth’ and how it has impacted
her practice. As well, the artist will address the similarities,
differences and challenges in approaching a painting in response to this
new environment. She will also show some of her sketches and ideas for a
future body of work relating to her time spent in Shetland.
A painting demonstration will also take place. Participants are invited
to bring their own materials for a hands-on session in creating works
‘en plein air’!
The cost is £7.50 payable at the door. Refreshments will be available. If you would like to borrow an easel
or art materials, please advise Anne Barron (details below). Please
advise if you are attending as numbers will be limited ....
