Twelve members attended the session and most painted or drew on black paper or canvas with acrylic paint, white pens, silver pens and coloured pencils.

There were many subjects chosen and all very effective on the black background. It was extremely difficult to photograph the pictures in the dim light, so please forgive the dull photos, the original artwork is much brighter.

Dot couldn’t attend the session but sent in three beautiful paintings she had previously done as it’s a subject she loves.

Some members painted to their own theme. We always like to see what you’re working on outside the group too.

Great work everyone. ‘On Black’ was an interesting theme and you rose to the challenge, well done!

The next time we meet is hanging evening on Friday 24th November from 7-9pm to hang our paintings for the Open Day on Saturday 25th November. On the Saturday the hall’s booked from 10am to 3pm, with visitors welcome for 4 hours from 10.30am to 2.30pm.
