Tuesday 24th September 2019 Stephen McClean - Watercolour What a fantastic evening we had with Stephen, it's always lovely when an artist is local and we feel a true connection with his work. His demo tonight brought us to a familiar place, overlooking Whitehead, White harbour to Kilroot from the Bla Hole. It's amazing how a lovely loose painting can come alive so quickly, lots of tips and techniques to digest. Thanks Stephen, a great night. |

Sam Fleming - Modern Art We enjoyed a very informative and certainly educational evening with Sam who demonstrated the use of colour in paintings. The science behind the art, how to enhance a painting and how to tone it down. Using oil but easily applied to any medium. Another great evening with Sam Fleming. |

Paul Wilson - Charcoal Paul gave a very engaging demonstration in charcoal. A fascinating insight into the different techniques for producing depth and tone without the use of colour. Great interest and enthusiasm was sparked within the club to give charcoal a go! |

Tuesday 6th November 2018 Kim Montgomery - Acrylics The club enjoyed a lovely demo in acrylics by Kim Montgomery. Her chosen subject, a portrait of the younger David Hockney who’s considered to be one of the most influential British artists of the 20th century. Kim used only black medium to create the portrait from a detailed line drawing. |

His witty tales of the shipyard, stories of the people and ships added to the authenticity of his paintings. It was a great pleasure to have such an accomplished artist with demonstrating with us. |
