This is a group for anyone who wants to try drawing and/or painting, whether an experienced artist or complete beginner.

Members can take part in group activities or do their own thing.

There will be opportunities to try different media (watercolour, pastels, acrylic, pencils, etc) and different subject matters (landscape, portrait, still life, etc).

The emphasis will be on having fun but members can expect to make artistic progress.
