At art group this week, Elizabeth was beginning a newpainting, of Scotland. Kevin suggested puttingin some “carrot people” to add interest. “What’s a carrot person?” I asked. He showed me by sketching some little dark figures which could bedistant figures on a painting – and yes they were carrot shaped, with the tuftson top being the head. You could do adog too, he said, “Would it be a sausage dog?” asked Elizabeth, keeping with thefood theme. Meanwhile, Gill hadcompleted her owl and was drawing a glass of water for practice at drawingshapes, Karen continued with her portrait of her mum and John with his Irishterrier pastel. Sue was nearing the endof her painting of chickens.
Two of our members had entered for the first ever HarleyGallery open exhibition, but unfortunately only one had been accepted. The one who’d been accepted thought that someof the “reject” work was better than what was on show. All paintings had to be entitled somethingbeginning with the letter “h”, which was a bit restrictive. I didn’t enter, partly because I didn’t haveanything that begun with that letter at the time. The Harley is a on theWelbeck estate. It used to be a gasworkswhen first built, and has beautiful architecture which it would have been ashame not to preserve. http://www.harleygallery.co.uk/
