The Sale for Ukraine was held on Saturday 16th April at the Oddfellows in Stafford. The venue was kindly donated by Oddfellows for the day to support our sale. Members donated equipment, materials and art works , alongside crafts such as cards , and sunflower seed-baskets and potted sunflower plants.
Shane Wiseman - Pastel Workshop Day
A first for SAG ..... Painting a model from the big screen. People said they had really enjoyed this format with good poses and strong lighting.
Lady With Feather by Doug Blanks
An arranged Still Life by Carole
These are just some of the drawings created on the day.
Also known as "squishy" art - it was great fun creating textures which were then applied to create a collage. A big thank you to Carole and Sheila in creating the day for the members .... it was very well supported.
The September monthly challenge of "Rooftops" concluded on Monday 11th October. Many thanks to everyone who shared all their wonderful images.
