| Hunstanton Lighthouse |
I didn’t go to art group this week, as I was at the seaside (Hunstanton, on the Norfolk coast) for the day. |
| "Oils" on Irfan View - funnily enough, it doesn't look that different |
Whilst there, I photographed this lighthouse and ruined chapel in front of it (St Edmund’s Chapel). I have been trying different effects on the computer screen to see how it might look if I painted it, and I think it is a good subject for a painting. Meanwhile young Kizzie has got into some good poses for me, although I have to be quick photographing her. I have started a blog for her (link on the right) as she is so cute and funny She’s always up to something.
I have also exchanged links with 8 or 9 mainly local artists with websites, and will be featuring some of them over the coming weeks. I got their details from the Arts Derbyshire website, which has listings of about 1,500 local artists, writers, dancers, organisations etc, and is worth a look if you want to commission something, want an artist to work with children in a school, or perhaps need a graphic designer. There is even someone who can organise barn dances. What more can you ask for? And of course my website is listed on there too.
Today, I popped over to Bolsover District Council to see their new café area, with, apparently, space where our group can display paintings. I am not sure if we will be allowed to display them to sell, but hopefully will be allowed to use a display to help publicise our group, and as we do need new members this might be a good idea.
